Mikro-Gen

Mikro-Gen was a UK software company based in Bracknell, Berkshire that produced games for home computers in the early to mid-1980s.

The company was formed by Mike Meek and Andrew Laurie in 1981, in order to capitalise on the growing boom of microcomputers in the home.

[1] The company had a solid reputation but became more prominent with its series of games featuring Wally Week and his family, all of which got excellent reviews in the highly respected computer magazine Crash.

The company was bought out by Creative Sparks Distribution in 1987, which subsequently went into receivership six months later.

[9] It sold 11,000 copies, almost 30,000 short of the number needed to break even[5] and no further Mikro-Plus games were produced.
