Imagitec Design Inc.

Founded in West Yorkshire, England, the studio established its technical reputation by translating complex arcade and computer experiences to home systems. For the conversion of Bad Dudes vs. Dragonninja (1989), the team adapted intense side-scrolling beat-’em-up action for home computers, while their work on Airborne Ranger (1989) required translating tactical military gameplay to the Amiga and Atari ST. This followed their early shoot-'em-up release, Screaming Wings (1987).

The company's original intellectual properties frequently experimented with genre mechanics. Viking Child (1991) introduced adventure-platforming elements reminiscent of arcade classics, while Dinolympics (1992) utilized cooperative puzzle-solving mechanics that were later adapted for handheld consoles. This prehistoric motif was further explored in Human Race: The Jurassic Levels (1992). Simultaneously, the developer secured high-profile North American licensing contracts, resulting in the domestic console adaptations of Wheel of Fortune (1992) and its distinct Wheel of Fortune [Cardboard Box] (1992) packaging release. These projects demonstrated the studio's capacity to navigate diverse hardware architectures, ranging from 8-bit microcomputers to emerging CD-ROM platforms, before the studio eventually transitioned into new corporate structures in the late 1990s.
