Question Download Button??

Hey, I guess I must be a real noob asking this, but where is that download button to download the game I want? I've checked multiple games, but that button is just not there, (lol i even tried searching through the source code for it). Maybe if i get a printscreen of that button? ...please?
Cheers

........................... what game ????????????

Most, but not all games can be downloaded.
Some games were up for download once but later retracted because of ..... becoming sold again (GOG etc...), copyright holders asked to, whatever.
Game page stays on for informative reasons.

For the games that are up for download you can click on the red GET IT sign.

Freeware games that were never commercialized have a ON AR button, will redirect you to Abandonia Reloaded, site for freeware games.

Sold games have a BUY IT button, will (... or should) redirect you to the seller's site.

More info @ FAQ

the game I was trying to get was Monkey Island...
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/19...ey+Island.html
sorry i just realized the posts similar to this one by other noobs like me and then finally noticed the "esa protected" sign below. It kinda confused me with that ad directly above it, made it seem like the esa sign was another ad...
anyway, thanks heaps.

The ad layout isn't all that bad
At least this isn't one of those websites where there's 70 ads all around the real download link that all say "Download" hehehe.

That used to be the case, hence the Download button is called "Get it". There were other legendary design mistakes, like the famous "NO 90!" button - if a download was prohibited then instead of "Get it" the button said "NO gO" in a font where the g looked like a 9...
