Day of the Tentacle

Hi!

I am looking for game Day of the Tentacle which I played long time ago. Anyone know where can I find it, please? It came from Lucas Arts...
Thanks,

Mitja

If you have the data files, you can play it on scummVM

Re: Day of the Tentacle

Are you guys suggesting that LucusArts has released this to the public domain? Otherwise, advising the use of P2P to find copyrighted material is typically a big no-no on these boards.

Re: Day of the Tentacle

I wonder myself what's the actual legal status of those games.

I'm sure of two things: firstly, many abandonware sites offer downloads of them, with a disclaimer of its (alleged?) legality, secondly, it's virtually impossible to get them by other means (they aren't sold anymore, not even in a form of some collections). And that concerns great majority of games we used to play in the old days ;-)

Blah. And now I have catch the plane to that petty (;-)) island of yours, arooaroo. At that barbaric hour :-/ Oh, cruel fate.

Are you suggesting that everyone in this thread before you arrived was advising the use of p2p to obtain copyrighted material?

I merely pointed out a perfectly legal means to play the game on a linux box, should he already possess the data files for the game.
