This book is devoted to the development of the domestic game industry—from its beginnings to today. It is based on interviews with well-known developers such as Andrei Kuzmin, Sergey Orlovsky, Oleg Medoks, Dmitry Arkhipov, and others. The book also discusses games that could have become popular but, for some reason, didn’t. The author, Andrei Podshibyakin, had extensive experience in the game industry and previously worked at Xsolla and PC Gamer.
