Atlas Games

Atlas Games is a company which publishes role-playing games, board games and card games. Its founder and current president is John Nephew.

History

When Atlas Games did not have the finances to publish On the Edge (1994), they partnered with Jerry Corrick and Bob Brynildson and formed a new corporation called Trident, Inc. to publish the game.[1] Eventually Atlas subsumed into Trident; Brynildson, Corrick, and their store - The Source Comics & Games - continued to support Atlas with their business experience and perspective.[1]

The company published the periodical EdgeWork for four issues.[2]
