Though it was a British product, the Amstrad CPC was always especially popular in France. Consequently most of the groups and websites that keep it alive are located in this country, too.

Arkos is a demo group that goes back to 1994. One of its founding members, Targhan, had already coded two games in 1991, but the group released only demos. Ishido is their first game.

This is not the first Ishido for the CPC. There was already one by Fraggle in 1991. But Arkos' by far surpasses it in graphics. Amstrad Today even created a cover and disk label for it, so that it's just like an original game from the 90s!
