RWS created and maintains the ''Postal (franchise), Postal'' franchise, which has often caused controversy for its use of violence. RWS' first game was ''Postal (video game), Postal'' in 1997, which caused much controversy and a trademark lawsuit from the United States Postal Service that lasted until 2003. A potential second game, ''Flesh and Wire'', was canceled in 1999. The company followed up ''Postal'' with ''Postal 2'' in 2003. The third game in the series, ''Postal III'', was co-developed by RWS and an internal team of publisher Akella, and RWS distanced itself from the game due to poor critical reception.
