Hamburg, October 31, 2011.InnoGames launched critical new gameplay features in Lagoonia, its newest browser game. The update focuses on building player relationships by allowing the game to be multiplayer. Now players can view other inhabited islands in the South Seas and further on in the game, visit these islands owned by fellow players and interact with them. Upon arrival on the island, one can replenish valuable natural resources for his or her island host.

In order to travel to foreign islands, one must first request an invitation from the island's owner. Players can only reach other shores by building one of several ships, which can then be filled with characters from his or her island. A report detailing character interactions has also been implemented.

Lagoonia is currently in a German language closed beta, and will launch in an English open beta shortly. The title blends the charm of a sandbox game with exciting social interaction – all on a remote South Sea island. The focus of the browser game is on the relationships between characters and players. Moreover, players plan and create many things that make the island livable and fun: from a warm fire and a cozy shelter, to useful fish nets, and later in the game lighthouses and waterslides. The game is free and no download is required - only technical requirements are a browser and an Internet connection.

With more than 70 million registered players, InnoGames is one of the world's leading developers and providers of online games. The Hamburg-based company has scored major successes with games such as Tribal Wars, The West and Grepolis.
