History
Imperia Online is the biggest and leading Bulgarian game production company. The idea for the eponymous game – the real-time strategy Imperia Online – was born back in 2005, when Dobroslav Dimitrov – the designer of the gameplay – and Moni Dochev - freelance programmer (at the time) – crossed paths. Back then Dobroslav, in his role as the then owner of one of the largest chains of Internet cafes 'Xaoc', bought license for time tracking software, developed by Moni. Hopping from one business meeting to another, it became clear that they both are fans of Age of Empires.
Soon after that the detailed survey and the extensive groundwork laid for the gameplay mechanics took shape in a prominent way - Dobroslav’s business plan. This comprehensive approach impressed Moni. Hence they finalized the project to the finishing touches, making sure they dotted the i’s and crossed the t’s, with the clear aim in mind to become the number one browser title of all MMO games on the market. And today the players appreciate our efforts to offer only superior products and reward us with their loyalty, high ratings and flattering comments on all platforms.
The company is an exhibitor, sponsor and speaker at the world’s most famous and renowned game conventions (Gamescom, Game Connection, Casual Connect, Dubai World Game Expo, etc.). We are also proud to have won two Deloitte awards and to have been distinguished as the No. 1 Bulgarian advertiser on Google (2011) and number 3 on Facebook (2013). Later on to the wall of fame many more awards were added among which are for Business Development, Client Policy and Human Resources by Forbes (2017) and we are part of the Best IT Employers in Bulgaria for 2021 by Forbes.
