A game company founded in 1983. It produced its own games as well as it published publishing games from other companies. Software titles were sold as low budget games (e.g. £1.99 in Great Britain, 9,95 DM (= 5,09€) in Germany).
In 1985 the label '''M.A.D''' (Mastertronic Added Dimension) was launched featuring games for a slightly higher price (£2.99 in Great Britain).
Mastertronic merged with [[Virgin|Virgin Games]] in the late 1980s to form the new company '''Virgin Mastertronic'''.
