ICOM Simulations

ICOM Simulations was a prominent developer and publisher of adventure games in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They gained recognition for their innovative use of full-motion video (FMV) technology and immersive storytelling.
ICOM Simulations was founded in 1981 by Tod Zipnick and Arnold Hendrick. The company initially focused on developing software for business applications and educational purposes.

In the mid-1980s, ICOM shifted its focus to the burgeoning adventure game genre. They released several successful titles for various platforms, including personal computers and gaming consoles.

In 1993, Viacom New Media, a division of the media conglomerate Viacom, acquired ICOM Simulations. Under Viacom's ownership, the company continued to develop and publish adventure games, albeit under the new name "Viacom New Media/ICOM Simulations."
