## History

ZeptoLab was founded in 2008 by twins Efim and Semyon Voinov, who have been making games since the age of ten.[3] Its name originates from “[Zepto](/source/Zepto-)”, a math prefix meaning 10−21, to “signify how truly boutique their operation was.”[4]

ZeptoLab has not received any external funding to produce their games.[5] It owns a game studio subsidiary in the UK and started a publishing division in 2017.[6] The company’s headquarters was relocated from Moscow to Barcelona in 2017.[7]

In January 2025, [Nazara Technologies](/source/Nazara_Technologies) acquired the [intellectual property](/source/Intellectual_property) of *[CATS: Crash Arena Turbo Stars](/source/CATS%3A_Crash_Arena_Turbo_Stars)* and [*King of Thieves*](/source/King_of_Thieves_(video_game)) for Rs 660,000,000.[8] The games will be published under Nazara Publishing.[8]
