ASC Games (abbreviated from American Softworks Corporation) was an American video game publisher founded in 1992. Formerly based in Darien, Connecticut, the company quickly became a major publisher for games on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Sega Genesis.
The company eventually shut down on January 7, 2000, due to the financial issues that came with the ongoing delay of their upcoming game, Werewolf: The Apocalypse – The Heart of Gaia, which was in development by DreamForge Intertainment.{{cite web | url = http://www.gamespot.com/articles/asc-games-to-shut-down/1100-2446015/ | title = ASC Games To Shut Down | last = Mullen | first = Micheal | date = 6 January 2000 | website = GameSpot | publisher = CBS Interactive | accessdate = 15 November 2015}}
