Rainbow Arts is a German game developer company founded in 1984 in Gütersloh by Marc Ulrich[1] which was later bought by Funsoft, and eventually absorbed by THQ in 1999. In the early 1990s most of the company's creative drive left to start their own development studios; Thomas Hertzler, who is now MD of Blue-Byte, and Armin Gessert, who founded Spellbound Entertainment.
