Amaze Entertainment

Amaze Entertainment was an American video game developer founded in 1996. It worked on games for home consoles, handheld systems, and other platforms, with a particular focus on licensed projects based on film, comic, and other entertainment properties. The company frequently worked with publishers and rights holders to adapt established entertainment brands into interactive products across multiple platforms. In 2006, Amaze Entertainment was acquired by Foundation 9 Entertainment and became part of that company's development organization. The Amaze name was subsequently no longer used as an independent operating brand, and the company is now defunct. Publicly verifiable information about its full catalogue and later organizational changes is limited, so this entry retains only the more certain information about its identity, acquisition, and business focus.
