In 1997, they formed the publishing label Red Orb Entertainment (chosen for the first six letters of Broderbund, reversed) to differentiate those games from their usual educational titles. Red Orb Entertainment published [[Ring: The Legend of the Nibelungen]]. When The Learning Company was purchased by Ubisoft in 2001, the Red Orb Entertainment label was no longer used. | |||
