Positech Games is an indie game developer from the UK. Owned by ex-Lionhead Studios programmer Cliff Harris, the company was formed in 1997, and has released a number of games for The PC. One of the most notable Positech releases is the turn-based political strategy game 'Democracy'. Positech has become known for making complex simulation games, as opposed to the arcade or puzzle games that are made by the vast majority of small 'casual' game developers. Founder Cliff Harris has been (and remains) an outspoken critic of the working practices of the mainstream 'triple A' games industry, particularly for their long-hours culture and lack of contact between developers and gamers.
