Well, technically it claims not to be free, and there are a couple of functions that don't work if unregistered, but unless all those memes are right and it's the test for Heaven... :))

In particular, the license contains a clause forbidding one from using the unrar source code to make a utility to create .rar files, which makes it non-free.

Well, ZIP has its limitations (total path length and non-ASCII characters for instance). But 7z fixes that, compresses better and is FLOSS. RAR's obsolete. I also am puzzled why anyone uses it anymore.

Don't have much on Shiny Loot, just three games:
- Jack Keane
- Realms of the Haunting
- So Blonde (where did I get that from??)
Still, it's sad to see Shiny Loot go...

In fact, the version of "Captain Morgane" that I have actually has references to the title "So Brunette" in the files. So very definitely connected. :)

I also have So Blonde from shinyloot, along with a few other drm-free adventures. Unfortunately a missed Haunted on the last sale.
Captain Morgane isn't drm-free anywhere that I know of, though (maybe gog or fireflowergames could fix that...)

Any chance they are going to do a blowout sale before the end? Didn't see anything in the email, but it would be nice to catch the last few games on there on my wishlist.
