'''Kuju''' is an independent game developer since 1998, formed after the buyout of [[Simis Limited (UK)|Simis Limited]]. from [[Eidos Interactive (UK)|Eidos Interactive]]. It was originally a cap brand for Simis and Glass Ghost, but later became the main company. Kuju has several development divisions, rebranded under different names: Doublesix (Surrey), Headstrong (London), Chemistry (Sheffield, closed in 2009), Kuju Manila and Kuju America (both closed), and Zoë Mode, the latter itself with divisions in Guildford, Brighton and San Francisco. Since the inception of these labels, the name Kuju seems to be virtually abandoned. |
