eGames, Inc. (OTCBB: EGAM) is a software publisher and developer for casual and traditional computer games . The eGames website provides registration and technical support. In late 2005, eGames acquired Cinemaware, a game company founded in the eighties who produced a series of "interactive movie" games including widely-acclaimed Defender of the Crown. In 2006, eGames released the first titles under its new affiliated label, Cinemaware Marquee. Through Cinemaware Marquee, eGames brings traditional games developed around the world to retail. Cinemaware Marquee titles include Space Rangers 2: Rise of the Dominators, Independent Game Festival grand prize winner Darwinia, and Moscow to Berlin: Red Siege. eGames recently announced that it would be reviving many of the classic Cinemaware titles, beginning with Defender of the Crown.

With the September 2005 release of Boss Hunter: Revenge is Sweet!, an office-themed arcade-style game where the player chases their boss with a wide variety of work-related weaponry, eGames kicked off its ground-up game development efforts, with plans to continue creating internal titles for the forseeable future.

eGames Inc. was one of the first companies to include spyware in their commercially bundled software.[1] [2]

One such example was the bundling of trojan "TSADBOT" which reported to the company Conducent Affiliate Network. [3]
