Data Design Interactive was a British video game company.

History

I decided I wanted to break into the budget software market − I think the software industry could be killing itself with the £10 game. Budget software like Cascade's 50 Games compilation, has got to be value for money − if you only play each game on a 50 game compilation for ten minutes, then you've had over a day's solid entertainment.
