Delete I can't see how this article or the articles of the several linked games have survived. There are no references in the company page. Going to the game pages to look for refs that support the company shows that they have no refs either... unless you count unlinked refs to the game manuals. Also, there is no claim of notability (also largely true for the game titles as well. My only question is why didn't anyone Nominate Hammer of the Gods, Final Liberation, Machiavelli the Prince, Merchant Prince II, Emperor of the Fading Suns, and Mall Tycoon.

Delete. Perhaps a symptom of a larger issue—most of the RPG-related related articles are similarly unsourced and quite possibly not notable. Most of the articles make no effort to establish notability in the lead, mainly because there isn't any. I PROD'd several of this company's more obviously not-notable video game subpages as per Celtechm's comment above. czar · · 19:09, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've added some refs. -- JHunterJ (talk) 20:06, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Probably just about notable. --Rotten regard (talk) 00:40, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. Most of their games are notable, but notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. Can't find broad coverage on the company itself in sources. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 13:38, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
