Asymmetric Publications

Encyclopedia : A : AS : ASY : Asymmetric Publications

Asymmetric Publications is the company that is responsible for the popular web-based RPG The Kingdom of Loathing. Currently it is run by Zack Johnson and Josh Nite (who are known as Jick and Mr. Skullhead in that game). As a result of the extreme popularity of their game, they have managed to make enough of a profit from donations for it to be Zack Johnson's full-time job.

In the past, Asymmetric Publications hosted various games and other attractions, including Infinity Plus One, an online fortune teller; Bee On Drugs, a bee who talks about the most random things imaginable; and Krakrox the Barbarian, a game widely noted as the precursor to the popular Kingdom of Loathing.

Asymmetric Publications' website has not been updated since February 11th, 2003, when it announces the opening of a "fun new game" which is, of course, The Kingdom of Loathing.
