The brothers started the company with dealerships and distribution of computer hardware and delivered networking solutions to companies in the Netherlands. Robert, a gifted computer programmer, was asked to create a a slot machine for his brother (for personal fun), and with this they started to develop cd ROM software in 1994 soon followed by computer games. Until 2001 the company released many games, Notably Fort Boyard, Atlantis, Egypt, Tank Racer, Roland Garros, Starship Titanic, Star Trek, etc. All games have been available in Dutch, English and most also in French. The company also developed and released one of the first content management systems, MediaBase and was involved in one of the first RSA encrypted rights management systems in the world together with Aegissoft in the United States. In 2001 R&P ceased their game development and publishing activities. The other activities continued under the flag of RPL Interactive.
