The Russian court has charged the ex-CEO of Russian company Game Insight, a subsidiary firm of Lithuanian Game Insight, Julia Vinokurova, to pay off €82,9K.
In addition, there are 130 lawsuits filed against ex-employees of Russian Game Insight. In the summer of 2022, they accepted a non-official offer to work in the companies connected to Igor Matsanyuk, one of the owners of Game Insight. The problem was that because Russian Game Insight was going through pre-bankruptcy, Matsanyuk wanted to withdraw the company's funds and ex-employees through new legal entities, specifically DataCode, Magic Craft, and Tsogen. And some Russian Game Insight ex-employees started to work at these companies.
In August 2023, it was announced that Lithuanian Game Insight intended to pay off €1,92M debts of its Russian subsidiary firm.
The debts mainly consist of unpaid salaries to employees from Russia.
Founded by Igor Matsanyuk and Alisa Chumachenko, Russian Game Insight was developing and supporting mobile games. Its portfolio consisted of the following games Paradise Island, Guns of Boom, and Cloud Raiders. In the summer of 2022, the company announced itself as bankrupt. In the autumn of the same year, the arbitration court started bankruptcy proceedings against the game studio. In February 2023, the arbitration manager of Game Insight, the bankruptcy trustee Denis Kachura accused Lithuanian game company Game Insight Group of deliberate bankruptcy of its Russian subsidiary Game Insight, whose beneficiaries are Igor Matsanyuk, Mikhail Vintschel, and Grigory Finger.
Founded in Vilnius in 2009, Lithuanian Game Insight Group develops games for social networks and mobile platforms. The company's owners are Cyprus Game Insight Holdings Limited and Sergey Avetikov. The Chairman of the Board is Igor Matsanyuk.
