Big Huge Games is a computer game developer located in Timonium, Maryland. The company was founded in February of 2000 by four veteran game industry developers: Tim Train, David Inscore, Jason Coleman and Brian Reynolds, lead designer of Civilization II, Alpha Centauri and Colonization.
They left Firaxis Games to found a new company because they wanted to apply the complexity and concepts of the turn-based strategy genre to the real-time strategy genre. Reynolds was also a founding member of Firaxis Games.
The company currently has about 76 employees. The studio's games are distributed by Microsoft.
