MicaByte Systems is a one person company based in Norway. It was formed in 2008 by Michael Akinde to serve as the development company for Imperium. Michael has more than 10 years of experience as a software developer, wrote his master thesis on artificial intelligence and database systems (before being side-tracked to take a Ph.D. in Data Warehousing). Today he works with massive databases and moonlights working on strategy games.

Imperium is a game system set in the ancient Hellenistic world. In it, the player will take on the role of a powerful family, and try to guide his or her ancient state to victory. You decide the destiny of the great powers as you preside over the rise (or fall) of Rome. Our aim with Imperium is to develop a game that "easy to learn, hard to master"; where the gameplay is simple enough to be instantly accessible, but the strategies provide a rich, historical decision-space.

MicaByte is dedicated to creating games that enlighten as well as entertain. The goal is to create simple turn based strategy games with an epic scope.
