Why, ObsCure is, it's so hard to find, you can't even find it on GOG anymore!

I like to lay my hands on a copy of Dragon Wars or One of the Magic Candle Series.

Sorry if I didn't make it clear earlier, but a game called ObsCure used to be available through GOG, but it is no longer listed on the catalogue. This is a question thread, trying to discover what happened, and why.

that is strange... i don't remember any press release about it going away

Maybe they accidentally took it off the catalog? Or maybe they lost the rights to sell it. Who knows.

If they lost the rights to sell it I would have expected some kind of announcement or even a sale like they did with CMR and TOCA. It might just be a website error.

Lucky I got it when I did. Probably a weird error rather than it being pulled since we didn't hear of it in advance

A way too ObsCure Title to the thread

I guess the website gremlins got hungry.

Yea... that's weird. And nobody in the Obscure forum seem to realize it, either. Probably you should contact support. :/

It's still in your collection?
Posted January 15, 2010
Well I have it backed up but I'll look
Yup, still there fine and I can still download the manual so presumably it all works. I'd say someone made a typo somewhere. I blame Tirpitz, not for any real reason, just the first gogger that came to mind

Yup, Obscure is still listed in my games, it no longer has a link to the product page though. If it has been removed, then it's either due to the agreement that GOG had to sell it expiring, or for licensing issues, perhaps with the soundtrack?
Only way to really know though, is to ask support.

I checked the catalog and it's not there ether. Someone should report this to the gog staff.
