Strategy planning games on the Macintosh

Re: Ishido

        Unfortunately, I don’t know where you can find it nowadays, but
Ishido was made by Accolade, and works alright on my PowerMac 6100/60.  I’ve
had the game for years, and once in awhile still play it since it’s such an
addicting game.  The graphics, as old as the game is now, still are really
good.

    Many years ago I played this game, and now I can’t find it anywhere!
    It was similar to Othello, but you had to match stones (the pieces
    weren’t just black/white — they had pictures on them).  It kinda
    falls into the strategy category, so I thought I would post here….

    If anyone knows anything about Ishido, where I can get a copy for
    the Mac, or what company put it out, I would be most appreciative!

    Thanks!

    It was originally released by Accolade, but has been long out of print.
    Fortunately for you, Macplay has just re-released it. I saw it somewhere
    the other day.
