Nival

Nival, originally known as Nival Interactive, is a Russian video game company with a... complicated history. It has gone through quite a few acquisitions, split-ups, renames and reacquisitions, to the point that it's hard to tell just whom the company belongs to at any given moment.

Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, Nival released several PC games, most of which didn't gain significant momentum outside Russia (with the exception of Heroes of Might and Magic V, made on a contract with Ubisoft after its reboot of the Might and Magic franchise). Now Nival's various confusing sub-brands are mostly occupied with mobile and browser-based games, plus support for Allods Online.

Games released by Nival:

The Allods franchise
The Etherlords series
The Blitzkrieg series
Silent Storm
Hammer and Sickle
Heroes of Might and Magic V
