Strategy First Game Info
 
Description: Strategy First was founded by four friends who shared a mutual passion for videogames. Don McFatridge (President), Steve Wall (V.P. Business Development), Richard Therrien (V.P. Product Development) and Dave Hill (V.P. Systems) still work closely together today, and are the driving force behind the company that is now a leading worldwide developer and publisher of entertainment software.

Their dream began in 1990 when the company received its first art and graphic design contract for a strategy role-playing game published by Sir Tech. For the following two years, it continued to fulfill contracts for such leading companies as ABC Sports Interactive, Strategic Simulations, Empire Interactive, Lucas Arts, and Cinar Films. Soon after, Strategy First developed its own sports game entitled Solid Ice and began to make a name for itself as a premier developer in the Industry, releasing such titles as Man of War I and II and Disciples: Sacred Lands.

Since that time, the company has continued to grow rapidly and has expanded from a small team of a dozen employees to a team with over 100 talented programmers, artists and marketing representatives spread over 2 offices in Montreal and Ottawa Canada.

Strategy First continues to build its profile as a unique alternative for up-and-coming developers seeking to market their games to a worldwide audience. Examples of some of the titles that Strategy First has brought to the market are Kohan: Immortal Sovereigns, Kohan: Ahriman’s Gift, Europa Universalis I & II, Sudden Strike and Cossacks European Wars.

In addition to publishing third party titles, Strategy First's very own development studios continue to break new ground with titles such as Disciples II: Dark Prophecy, O.R.B., Nexagon: The Pit and Zero-G Marines. Strategy First is definitely a company to keep your eyes on. The future is bright!
