Background

Domark was a UK-based video game company, founded by Dominic Wheatley and Mark Strachan (hence the name) and released their first game in 1984. Their first logo (connected D-M) was used only for several years and can't be found in games. In 1995, Domark merged with Eidos and Big Red Games, forming Eidos Interactive. The name was abandoned the following year.
