So, I've been trying to get my hands on a copy of this game, and the closest I've come to it is looking through the archived VLforum, but the download links are broken. It's classified as 'abandonware' meaning they no longer care for it.
So, does anyone know _where_ I can get this game? I can't get it off of amazon, since I live on Canada and the canadian Amazon has only odd sketchy listings that probably cost more in shipping than the actual game.

Ooooh, I'm kind of curious if there's a digital copy as well! |

It was free to download to VLforum, so I don't see why someone here wouldn't have it

If it is abandon-ware, it might be safe to download it off of a torrent site, as long as it is legal to do so. If it USED to be freely available to download legally and the links are just broken, I believe it would be fine. |

Problem is, none of the torrents really have seeders

In that case, the best thing you could do would be to download a few of them on your torrent client...if they don't have seeds, they won't download...BUT when someone who DOES have it connects to the internet, your downloads should start. It might end up taking a while, but I looked at the size of the game and once it gets started it doesn't seem like it'll take too long to finish. |

I'm m not too sure if Aquazone is abandonware, but I'd advise against using torrent websites as they can harbour malware. |

Discussing torrents and how to find them can fall under the umbrella of piracy, and as a website we don't support or encourage that industry. Not all torrents are created for illegal purposes, but the fact that people can still legitimately buy this game on Amazon makes the abandonware claim a bit questionable... I'm not sure. I can't seem to find any official sources to back this up. It might be thought of as abandonware by the online community, but copyright remains a tricky issue.
Of course, we can't control what happens on your own machine, but to be better safe than sorry please take those discussions elsewhere (I hear private messages are good for that). Thank you! |
