Digital Illusions CE (DICE) is a Swedish company that develops computer games. It was started by members of the former demo group "The Silents". All members came from the small towns of Alvesta and Växjö. For a long time, while the employees were also studying at Växjö University, the company's office consisted of a small dorm room. During those days the company developed many titles for the Amiga 500, such as Pinball Dreams, Pinball Fantasies, and Pinball Illusions.
In 1998 the company was registered on the Swedish stock exchange and has since experienced tremendous growth. As of 2004 the total value of the company was estimated at approximately 55 million dollars. Also in 2004, a deal with Electronic Arts gave EA 19 percent ownership of DICE.
In November 2004, Electronic Arts announced their intent to purchase all outstanding shares in Digital Illusions at a price of SEK 61 per share. The board of directors of Digital Illusions recommended that the Company's shareholders accept the offer. Electronic Arts owned 62 percent of Digital Illusions on March 31, 2005.
