FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CCG Workshop Licenses The Testimony of Jacob Hollow from Third World Games,
Inc.

Hanover, MD - November 17, 2003 - CCG Workshop has licensed the Testimony of
Jacob Hollow From Third World Games, Inc. for online play. This traditional
card game was released March 2003, and will soon be available to play on CCG
Workshop's website.

The Testimony of Jacob Hollow allows up to 6 players to take the role of an
investigator exploring the town of Castle Bay. Players try and avoid
spirits, fiends and abominations while trying to gain investigation points
to further their quest in solving the mystery of the town. Players need to
balance both their "Mind" and "Life" statistics, as if either of them reach
0, then they are out of the game!

Ed Mittelstedt, CCG Workshop Owner and Core Developer says, "We have now
licensed two fantastic products from Third World Games. Testimony of Jacob
Hollow is a game like no other in this genre. It's a card game that has ties
to the Resident Evil or Silent Hill line of games for the consoles - a
creepy atmosphere, lots of exploring, and facing monstrosities you wouldn't
wish on your worst enemy! We are so excited to get it online that we started
development before it was even announced!"

Michael Nickoloff, Chief Operating Officer of Third World Games says, "We
are happy with Portable Adventures (our first online licensed game) and CCG
Workshop, so it seemed like a natural fit to license this game to them as
well! Eager fans will be able to play The Testimony of Jacob Hollow with
others all around the world and at any time!"
