Jagex Limted is a company based in the United Kingdom. One of it's creators, Andrew Gower, says that Jagex stands for Java Gaming Experts.
Jagex Limited was created by three people. Andrew Gower, Paul Gower, and Constant Tedder founded Jagex in December 2001 to run their game RuneScape. Even before 2002, RuneScape already had over 1 million accounts.
Jagex has grown greatly since 2001. They now have two offices, one in Cambridge, and the other in London. Over 100 people are employed as staff. Many servers have been created across the globe and many are still planned.
RuneScape
RuneScape has gone through many stages to come to the great game it is currently.
RuneScape started out as a 2D game known as DeviousMUD. It was not released to the public and very few people saw it. Jagex later came up with what is now known as 'RS Classic' in the December of 2001. Just a few months later, on February 27, 2002, Jagex launched it's members. Before the member launch, RuneScape was a ...
RuneScape was completely re-written during the latter part of 2003 and early 2004 allowing 'RuneScape 2' to be launched in March 2004. Originally only a beta for members, it was quickly released to free players.
Since the launch of RS2, which is now RuneScape, Jagex has vastly increased the size of RuneScape. Over 150,000 players almost everyday. Over 5 million accounts have been created. Over 100 servers have been placed around the world. RuneScape has become one massive online adventure since it's small start.
Starting Out
RuneScape is a game available to all. However, if a player wants continual updates, then they're recommended to become a member.
To play the game, players have to go to RuneScape's homepage and make a new account. When they've completed making their account, they can then select a world to play on, let RuneScape load, and then play.
When players have logged in to RuneScape, they can then select what they want their character to look like. When they've finished creating their character, they will be given instructions on what to do next.
New players start out on Tutorial Island. On the island are various NPCs that will talk to the player and tell them how to play RuneScape. All the player has to do is follow the tutorial's instructions and they will be finished the tutorial in less than 30 minutes.
RuneScape is played in a client.
