Frenzic 1.1 is Now Available
March 22, 2007
The Iconfactory and ARTIS Software are pleased to announce the release of Frenzic version 1.1 for Mac OS X. This latest version features several important improvements, including an in-game notification system for important announcements, new quit behavior and greatly improved game performance on older Macintosh systems.
Due to the nature of some of the changes, previous versions of Frenzic will no longer sync with the game server, so all players will need to download and update to version 1.1. Simply download the new version and drag any previous version of the game to the trash. Your previous scores and login data will be preserved and you can play normally.
For more details, see the News page at Frenzic.com, and visit the Version History page for a complete list of what’s new in version 1.1. This update is free and required for all registered users of Frenzic.
