Greenwood Entertainment
Greenwood Entertainment was a German developer and publisher of computer games. It was founded in 1994 in Bochum by Markus Scheer to complement his Art Department studio, which specializes in advertising games , and was supposed to concentrate on high-quality full-price games. In the following years, Greenwood Entertainment became known for its business simulations and management games such as Der Planner 1 and 2, Mad TV 2 and ran Trainer , which were released for the PC.
In addition to own developments, games from other studios were also brought to Germany. Greenwood took over the German version of the action adventure Realms of the Haunting from Gremlin. Ran Soccer was also developed in cooperation with Gremlin, based on Actua Soccer , the starting signal for the Actua and ran series.
In 1997 the company was merged into its parent company, which in 1999 became Phenomedia . Since then, Greenwood Entertainment no longer appears as a developer. Thus, the planner 3 of Madcat Interactive Software developed for Phenomedia.
The name Greenwood Entertainment was last used briefly by Phenomedia in 2010/2011 as a publishing label, for example for the Finnish adventure Alpha Polaris (2011).
