- icebraining 9y agoUnless the copyright holders donated it into the public domain (fat chance), it's still under copyright for at least another 70 years.
- Spoom 9y agoAbandonware is nearly always technically illegal (after all, if it wasn't, and was formally released by the copyright holder, it would be freeware). As mentioned elsewhere in this thread, the game is still sold, so I'm not sure it even qualifies as "abandoned".
