Founded in 1983 and based in Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Altron focused in its early years on localising foreign software for the Japanese market. They later began focusing on oursourcing work for foreign publishers, mainly based on well-known franchises from TV and toys. In the 2010s they changed focus again, this time developing original mobile games which they self-publish in all regions. The majority of their current releases are card/tile games or virtual pet simulations.

It is known for Kiki Kai Kai, Paperboy, Puzzle Bobble, Virtua Tennis
