Ishido: The Way of Stones is an unlicensed Sega Mega Drive puzzle game developed and published by Accolade. A port of the titular 1990 Publishing International computer game Ishido: The Way of Stones, it was released exclusively in the United States later that year, and is most known for being one of few commercially-released Sega Mega Drive games to fail the system's TradeMark Security System test (refusing to operate with anything but the earliest Mega Drive hardware.)
