About this game

"The Return of ISHTAR" is an action game released by NAMCO (Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc.) in 1986. The story takes place after the overthrow of DRUAGA. The tower has lost DRUAGA's magic power and is now in its original ruins, and the monsters have become more ferocious. Take control of KI and GIL and try to escape from THE TOWER OF DRUAGA, where you no longer even know the way out. The "Arcade Archives" series has faithfully reproduced many classic Arcade masterpieces. Players can change various game settings such as game difficulty, and also reproduce the atmosphere of arcade display settings at that time. Players can also compete against each other from all over the world with their high scores. Please enjoy the masterpiece that built a generation for video games. *This game uses the Japanese ROM for the main part of the game. The options menu and manual are available in Japanese, English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
