| | IGN: Heavy Layoffs at Broderbund |
 | | Hardest hit were employees at Broderbund's manufacturing facilities, located in Petaluma, CA, as well as staff in its Novato, CA offices, where several offices are being consolidated with Mindscape, another Learning Company division. |
 | | And though Broderbund's game division, Red Orb, doesn't have a large game lineup, it does have Myst, which is pretty much the goose that lays the golden eggs, as far as the game industry is concerned. |
 | | Broderbund was founded in 1980, at the very advent of the games software industry, by two brothers, Doug and Gary Carlston. |
