Articles - Zojoi

Zojoi is a small gaming company, tucked into the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains of central Virginia and led by gaming industry veterans Dave Marsh and Karl Roelofs. The duos first title, Shadowgate, premiered on the upstart Apple Macintosh in 1985 and became an instant classic, helping to define the first-person adventure genre. They went on to port Shadowgate and the other "MacVentures" (Déjà vu, Déjà vu II, The Uninvited) to no less than 10 platforms including the NES and Color Gameboy. The duo then went on to work on a number of outstanding Sherlock Holmes mysteries and best-selling side scrollers. Zojoi is devoted to bringing both the original games and new games based on these and other exciting properties to the PC, Mac, handheld gaming devices and, eventually, interactive television (in which Zojoi has patents pending.)
