Psygnosis (Psyclapse)
Europe
They initially decided to have two names for their new publishing house.
Psygnosis, taken from the Latin Psy, meaning mind and Gnosis, meaning advanced knowledge, it was a cool sounding name, that they would use for their adventure and strategy style games.
To distinguish their action based games they would go under the different name Psyclapse, this was an obvious nod in respect of their Imagine Software roots, and the C64 game never released withthe same name. They would drop the name Psyclapse entirely by 1990.
