Abandonware is not a legal term. We put on games that are "abandoned" meaning the copyright owners either don't exist any more, don't care about the game any more... and we're not hurting anyone by doing so, that's why usually no-one objects.
This game was added to the site quite some time ago, but we were then contacted by ESA. They are a law firm, hired to protect the copyrights of different companies (such as Accolade, Atari, LucasArts...) and all the games by Sierra are n their list of protected games. That is why we removed the download link.
The review is still here, because Abandonia is mostly about keeping the memories alive (like a game museum), but as it is 100% illegal to have the game for downloading (like with some other games) we are not hosting it. If you really want the game, you should look on ebay and try to get a second hand copy.
