5mississippi launches PlayHookum.com, site of Hookum — the world’s first multiplayer Bimini Ring game
Richmond, VA — October 06, 2009 — Toy and game manufacturer, 5mississippi is excited to launch http://www.playhookum.com. Playhookum.com is the home of Hookum, the next great party game. Hookum is part boardgame, part game of skill, part parlor game, part strategy game — it delivers everything you love about playing games, all in a patented and portable design.
Left on a coffee table, Hookum is like a light to moths. Watch as friends and family gather around for heated bursts of crazy competitiveness. It is so compulsively playable that you will find yourself coming back to it time and time again.
According to Clay Hilbert, Chief Executive Officer at 5mississippi, “We’re excited to launch playhookum.com so consumers can see for themselves that Hookum is the most unique game to come to the toy and game marketplace in quite some time. We’re confident they’ll like what they see on the website and buy Hookum for all of their friends.”
Unlike other games that require complicated set-ups and huge investments of time to finish, Hookum is the exact opposite. To play, simply push, twist and extend. It’s patented design allows for multiplayer competition on a whim. And players determine the length of the game: first to five? First to ten? It’s your game. You decide. One thing is certain, one swing of this unique game, and you’re hooked.
For additional information on PlayHookum.com, visit http://www.playhookum.com or contact Clay Hilbert at 804-514-6252 or clay@playhookum.com. Hookum will be available for purchase for an MSRP of $39.99. (editors note: it’s derived from the popular bimini ring toss game popular in the Bahamas.)
