History

Eipix Entertainment entered the game development business as an indie company. Early projects included the sci-fi race and shooter Pyroblazer[3] and eco-themed puzzle adventure Ziro.[4]

After several independent projects Eipix began working as an outsourcing company, porting and making games for other developers.

In 2011 Eipix Entertainment went back to developing its own games, having shifted its focus towards casual games, mainly hidden object puzzle adventure (HOPA) and Free-to-play titles, published through Big Fish Games.

Starting with Final Cut: Death on the Silver Screen Collector's Edition in 2012, Eipix has developed more than 40 HOPA titles.[5]

The company is currently developing several free to play games for release in 2015.[6]
