The Will, alien 33, has sailed into Cosmic Encounter Online. The addition of the Will gives Cosmic Online 40,920 alien game combinations. The Will features the power of choice which enables it to ignore Destiny and go where it wants.

Members will get to play the new alien at once since the game matches players with aliens they have not yet played. Will is one of the Expansion Set 3 aliens from the original Eon Products Cosmic Encounter board game according to Peter Olotka, Cosmic Encounter designer.

The Will History: Arising on a cold and barren asteroid, the Wills gave no thought to the legal niceties in their relentless struggle to capture the faint rays of a dying star. Unfairly charged with preying on the weak, they wish only to find locations in which they may spread their solar membranes, unopposed.

Next Feature: The Cosmic designers have started on the next Cosmic Online feature, 'Combo Rooms' which feature games with special preset alien combinations.

Cosmic Encounter Online is the multiplayer online game where players have their marginal human brains augmented by alien intelligence.

The 3rd annual April Fools Weekend at Cosmic Encounter Online kicks off after the Winter Crunch League Finals Game on Friday March 31st 8:00 PM est.

April Fools Roolz pushes Cosmic over the top, according to CE designer Peter Olotka.

"Since the basis of Cosmic Encounter is to break all the rules, April Fools Roolz is a great opportunity to show off the flexibility of CE's underlying design. With a simple 60 second restart, the game suddenly blasts into a whole new dimension. Extreme high and low pods, aliens in each others' skins, artifacts flying around like mad bees, mysterious win conditions and a rockin' lobby featuring the new CEO Jukebox instantly arrive to contribute to the Cosmic madness."

Cosmic Encounter Online is the multiplayer online game with over 170,000 games played. It currently features 33 Aliens and 40,920 different four player games. Each alien character wields its own unique power to gain advantage in a 20 minute contest. Cosmic Encounter Online has an all Flash client with a Java based (XadrA) server running in Linux.

You can either make a free profile, which I suggest unless you're a hardcore cosmic encounter fan and want to pay the subscription rates (which, considering the game itself is free, isn't too much to ask of people who play the game all the time.)
