1000 Year Adventure
A thousand years ago, the journey of the ship ISIS was stopped by the eruption of a volcano. The ship should bring music and healing sound of harmony to a world of disharmony. Since this time the ship "sleeps" in a pyramid, waiting for somebody to bring three jewels to wake it up again, using their power to start ISIS´ journey.

But this has to be soon, because the volcano may erupt again and the ship would have to sleep again thousand years, because the door of the pyramid only opens one time in this period to let the ship out...

Join the group Earth, Wind and Fire in an interactive game. Can you find the missing gems and get the ship ready to sail before the volcano erupts again?" Music is the language of the soul. It seeks to communicate a message to everyone that is open to receive it". So states Maurice White, leader of the band Earth, Wind, and Fire during discussions for one of the bands latest projects. 

The project involves the combination of music computers, videos, video games, and a combination of all of the above. This has resulted in a program called "Isis", and is produced by Panasonic Interactive Media Snow Lion Entertainment. This program has many levels to it. On one hand, it is a video game. On another, it is a collection of puzzles. And it is a collection of music and interview videos. 

Taken collectively, it is as unique an offering to the computer world. After the puzzles are solved and the ship is freed, there is an entire concert shown to the players.
