Domark Software Ltd. was a video games software house based in the United Kingdom. The name was derived from the given names of its founders, Dominic Wheatley and Mark Strachan. Domark developed and published many games for home computers during the 1980s.

The company's first released was the 1984 title Eureka!, an adventure game created by Ian Livingstone, which was notable for offering a £25,000 prize to the first person to completely solve the game. In 1990 they became a third party licensee for Sega[1].

Domark and Tengen entered into an agreement where Domark would distribute each other's games in Europe and North America, respectively.

In 1995, Domark merged with Eidos Technologies, Simis and Big Red Games to form the Eidos Interactive group. Eidos Interactive later acquired U.S. Gold, which included Core Design.
