Founded in Cupertino by veteran EA producer Joe Ybarra in 1990, Ybarra Productions built a reputation for bold, systems-rich DOS titles. Absorbed into Creative Insights in 1994, the studio itself is long gone, but its design legacy endures.
The company’s catalogue spans the tactical fantasy of SpellCraft: Aspects of Valor (1992); the pioneering graphical MUD The Shadow of Yserbius (1993) and its single-player follow-ups Fates of Twinion (1993) and Ruins of Cawdor (1995); and the ambitious space-colonization epic Alien Legacy (1994).
