History
Nightfall Games was founded by
Dave Allsop, Anne Boylan and Jared Earle in April 1993 in Glasgow, Scotland. In September 1993, Nightfall released their role-playing game
SLA Industries. After releasing their first sourcebook
Karma in 1994, Nightfall was purchased by Wizards of the Coast (WotC).
Nightfall was started up again in 1998 by Allsop, Earle and
Tim Dedopulos after regaining the rights to
SLA Industries from WotC. In 1999, Nightfall partnered with Hogshead Publishing to continue publishing
SLA. Hogshead closed operations in November 2002,
after which Nightfall partnered with Cubicle 7 Entertainment. In 2004, Dave Allsop, the creator of
SLA Industries, temporarily resigned from Nightfall.
In April, 2011, Nightfall Games returned to independent status while retaining Cubicle 7 as their publisher.
In April, 2012, Nightfall Games announced that Romark Entertainment had acquired the film and television rights to SLA Industries and that a joint venture would produce comics, games and other media. Since March 2013 no updates have been made on this topic.
On 28 February 2018, Nightfall Games was incorporated in the UK. Directorship is Allsop, Earle and Rapson.
