Domark
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Domark was a computer and video games software house based in Britain. The name was derived from the given names of its founders, Dominic Wheatley and Mark Strachan. Domark developed and published many games for home computers during the 1980s.
In 1984, the company released Eureka!, an adventure game created by Ian Livingstone, which was notable for offering a £25,000 prize to the first person to completely solve the game. In 1995 Domark merged with Eidos Technologies, Simis and Big Red Games to form the Eidos Interactive group. Eidos Interactive later acquired U.S. Gold which included Core Design.
