BURBANK, Calif., October 30, 2003 - It's more than a DVD, it's an entertainment experience you don't just watch, you play! Presenting Disney's revolutionary new LILO & STITCH'S ISLAND OF ADVENTURES, where you continue your "Lilo & Stitch" adventure and explore the Hawaiian islands in a whole new world of excitement. LILO & STITCH'S ISLAND OF ADVENTURES includes a DVD with almost 60 minutes of new Lilo & Stitch adventures, and a revolutionary new, immersive DVD game that takes you inside the world of Lilo & Stitch - it continues the story of your favorite Disney characters and expands the Home Entertainment Experience on DVD. LILO & STITCH'S ISLAND OF ADVENTURES is available on November 11 from Walt Disney Home Entertainment. Available for $29.99 (S.R.P.).

The family room will come to life as this unique immersive DVD experience puts family viewers in a new "Lilo & Stitch" story. After watching the two Lilo & Stitch adventures, players interact with favorite and new characters from Disney's beloved "Lilo & Stitch" animated film. They'll race around the game board in a quest to capture Stitch's lost cousins, while playing dynamic on-screen games, singing, dancing and having fun. Get ready for an all-new, magical experience, because you've never played your DVD like this before.

Never the same game twice: the DVD works in conjunction with the board game to give players randomized choices that allow unpredictable game play, so families can play over and over again without repetition.

No lost dice: players use their remote control to spin the onscreen spinner and advance along the playing board.

Surprise character appearances: Lilo, Stitch, Jumba and the evil Dr. Hamsterviel can appear at any moment to help or hinder your progress.

10 onscreen games: land on a frog square and you'll play one of ten ever-changing onscreen games for the chance to win an experiment.

10 fun activities: land on a tourist square and you might have to challenge Jumba to a staring contest.

Lush tropical environments: stunning settings, original music and 5.1 Surround Sound bring island sights and sounds alive.

Uncontrollable forces of nature: nine natural disasters can happen at any time.

In LILO & STITCH'S ISLAND OF ADVENTURES, Stitch's fellow experiments have been accidentally freed and are wreaking havoc in Hawaii! Lilo has set out after them but she can't capture them all by herself, and if Nani finds out what happened, she's in big trouble. Luckily, David (your narrator) knows the path she took and is sending YOU and your fellow players after Lilo to help her collect the experiments. You'll experience the sights and sounds of the island and receive surprise visits from special guests, who may help (or hinder) your progress as you race to the finish line. Crossing the finish line first doesn't guarantee victory. You must collect the most experiments to win, but don't let Nani find out!

"Lilo & Stitch" director Chris Sanders says "This exciting game will sweep you away to Hawaii, straight into the world of Lilo and Stitch." Director Dean DeBlois adds, "What a great concept - I think it's a great way for everyone to experience Lilo and Stitch in a brand new way. It's so much fun." Producer Clark Spencer says, "It's like our characters have gone off on their own adventure. The great thing is you can play the game over and over, and it's different each time."

LILO & STITCH'S ISLAND OF ADVENTURES features original music and Dolby® Digital 5.1 Surround Sound, to bring the lush, tropical sights and sounds of the Hawaiian Islands right into the family room. Full of laugh-out-loud humor, action-packed adventure and irresistible characters, families will play games, overcome natural disasters, receive surprise visits from special guests and even do the hula as they travel through Stitch's Hawaii.
