was one the most prolific
Spanish Computer Game developers of the so-called ''Golden Age of Spanish software'' of the
1980s . It released many games for the
Spectrum computers in the mid-1980s, but its games were not as popular on the
PC . Founded in
1987 , the company obtained success with its premiere title ''
Livingstone, Supongo '' (''Livingstone, I Presume''), based on the famous 19
th-century explorer
Dr. Livingstone . Nevertheless, their most important title is probably ''
La Abadía Del Crimen '' (''
The Abbey Of Crime ''), based on
Umberto Eco 's best-seller ''
The Name Of The Rose ''.
Like many other Spanish software companies of the time, Opera Soft did not adapt to the generational change and went out of business in the early
1990s with the emergence of
16-bit video games.
