Trivia +
Before closing down, the company was working on a post-apocalypse themed RPG, similar to Fallout. They didn't get further than a tech demo and pitch doc.
The company website was formerly located at http://www.troikagames.com/
The name Troika came into being when Tim Cain, Leonard Boyarsky and Jason Anderson were working on Fallout at Interplay. Their boss dubbed them The Troika and as they continued to work together to make great games, it seemed rather fitting to keep the name.
Later, it has taken the additional meaning of Code, Art and Design, the three things Troika considers the key to a great game.
