Loriciel, formerly Loriciels, was a French home computer software developer founded in 1983 by Mark Bayle and Laurent Weill. The company owed its name to microcomputer Oric-1 (the name is a pun which combines the French word logiciel = software and oric, the name of the microcomputer) manufactured by British company Tangerine Computer Systems for which they produced their very first games.

In 1990 the company was forced to abdicate the "S" and change its name to Loriciel due to financial problems. In 1994 the company went bankrupt, and most of its staff moved to Virtual Studio in an attempt to be "reborn".
