Arcanum is an isometric steampunk RPG in the same mold as Fallout and Baldur's Gate. It was made by the now defunct Troika Games (makers of Temple of Elemental Evil and Vampire: Bloodlines) in 2001. It also was (and still is) an incredibly rare game to find.

The problem is, is that I can't find listings of whether or not it's considered Abandonware. HOTU doesn't have it and it isn't in the OldWarez list either. Is this because it's such a rare game or because it's so laughably out of reach?

Also what are the chances of it making it to the site if it is Abandonware?

Thanks.

Arcanum was a good one.
ESA'd until 2017.

I think you should be able to find a few copies for sale, if you dig around various online stores. If none have it anymore, try Amazon or Ebay.
