They are based out of Epsom, Surrey (UK) with subsidiary offices in Arlington, Vermont, Milan, Italy and Edmonton, Alberta.[1] Matrix Games/Slitherine also own and financially support the online game reviewing publication The Wargamer (www.wargamer.com). Their focus is primarily but not exclusively on war games and turn-based strategy. The product line-up also includes space sims (The Gathering Storm), sports management sims (Maximum-Football), and real-time strategy titles (Cross of Iron). Matrix Games publishes games from a variety of developers, including SSG, 2by3 Games, Panther Games, Koios Works, Destroyer Studios, Western-Civilization and AGEOD. Company historyMatrix Games was founded by David Heath in 1999 in Staten Island, New York. As of January 2010, Matrix Games has published over 75+ titles. Matrix has in-house artists, programmers, and producers which all take active roles in projects of smaller wargame developers who lack the resources to hire full-time staff otherwise. In May 2010 Matrix Games and Slitherine announced a merger of the two companies making it the largest wargaming specialist publisher{{Citation needed|date=December 2013}}. Matrix Games pioneered the move into digital delivery, minimising costs to customers and providing them with an interactive environment. They have signed some of the best known{{Citation needed|date=December 2013}} developers in the strategy / Wargaming market from established wargames developers like Gary Grigsby, John Tiller, Mark Walker, Don Gilman, Norm Korger, Panther Games, and Strategic Studies Group to innovators as well as classic titles from TalonSoft, Boku Strategy Games and the Close Combat series. Matrix Games' involvement with the development of the products it publishes, they claim, is a key part of their philosophy, as stated on their website: The most important philosophy of our company is we love what we make. We're gamers first and then we take our love of games and put them into our products. The result has been a tremendous success. AwardsAwards won for Matrix Games products include:
