Background

In 1996, Nicolas Gaume bought back 100% of Mindscape Bordeaux, which then became Kalisto Entertainment. English, American, Japanese and Chinese offices were opened and between 1997 and 1998. In June 2000, the company acquired the US studio DayLight Productions and renamed it Kalisto Entertainment USA Inc. The company eventually filed for bankruptcy in April 2002; several former members of the American arm went on to form BigSky Interactive.
