The Game Factory
Danish video game publishing company
The Game Factory was a Danish video game publisher operating in Europe and North America. The Game Factory was founded in 2004 and fully owned by K.E. Mathiasen A/S, with headquarters just outside Aarhus, Denmark. Its titles were distributed either by the company's own sales force in Scandinavia, their parent company K.E. Media or from their two fully owned subsidiaries in Santa Monica, California and London, England.
Their final known release was Rubik's World for the Nintendo DS and Wii on November 4, 2008. Both their American and European websites lay dormant until July 2012 when their hosting expired. Their domains eventually followed.

Why this record matters
“The Game Factory” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Game, Factory and Danish provides the most credible route into that argument.
The record creator and administrative purpose are central evidence, because official documentation reflects both action and institutional priorities. The source revision retrieved here is dated Oct 9, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q9287164. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2004, 2008 and 2012.
Official terminology may obscure informal participation, dissent or communities documented only indirectly. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
