Stellar Stone

Stellar Stone was a video game developer founded in 2000 and based in Santa Monica, California. The company developed games offshore in Russia and Ukraine, with a small staff and low budget of at least $US 15,000. The co-owner of Stellar Stone was Sergey Titov of TS Group Entertainment, who licensed TS Group's Eternity engine out to Stellar Stone in exchange for a substantial portion of the company. They published a total of eight games, most of which fell to the annals of obscurity and never received widespread press coverage. Their first commercial game, Taxi Racer, was released in 2001, but their best-known title was Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, a 2003 video game considered to be one of the worst games ever made.

Most of Stellar Stone's games were published by GameMill Publishing—the sole exception being Taxi Racer, which was published by BestBuys Interactive. What little coverage the company has received has mostly been negative, generally due to the perceived low quality of Big Rigs and sometimes their other titles, all of which (sans Total Mahjongg and Shanghai) were covered by Russian reviewing site Absolute Games.
