Palace Software

Palace Software was a British video game publisher and developer during the 1980s based in London, England. It was part of the Palace Group- a company associated with film and video distribution- and was itself notable for the Barbarian and Cauldron series of games for 8-bit home computer platforms, in particular the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC and Commodore 64. Palace caused some controversy with its advertisements in computer magazines, particularly for Barbarian II: The Dungeon of Drax which featured Page Three girl Maria Whittaker as a scantily clad female warrior.
