Ribbon Hero 2
| Ribbon Hero 2 Release |      |
You’ve tried games that test your card playing, your virtual farming skills, and your ability to hurl small birds. Now there’s a game that will turn you into an Office Jedi (light saber not included).
Did you know that you can record and insert audio clips in OneNote, or edit photos in PowerPoint with just one click? There are a ton of features in Office that can help you be more productive, organized, and creative. And the best way to discover them is through the new game, Ribbon Hero 2.
That’s right; we turned Office into a game! Ribbon Hero 2 follows the story of Clippy (yes, he’s alive!) and his travels through time as he explores different time periods and tries to get back home. With each time period, the player gets to explore a new game board with challenges they must complete to get to the next level. Each challenge takes the player into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or OneNote to complete a task. Discover new Office features by actually using them, with a hint button to fall back on in case you get stuck. Race for a high score with colleagues, classmates, and friends, or even put your score on your resume to show off your Office skills!
Come try the latest lightweight game from Microsoft. When you’re done having fun, you’ll realize that you’re also more productive. Learn more and download the game at http://www.ribbonhero.com
