Ancients 2
 
I recently found my copy of Epic Megagames' sequal to Ancients, and I was wondering if Abandonia would accept this. It's not listed on the oldwarez list, but Ancients is listed as shareware. Does this also extend to Ancients II?

No. Status is always checked independently for each game in a series.

Okay, thanks for that. After a little personal research, however, I'm still a little confused as to the status of this game.

Apparently, while Ancients has a shareware version, Ancients II does not, clearing this from shareware status. Meanwhile, Classic-Trash.com says the copyright has expired. But if I recall correctly, the lack of a copyright is not automatic grounds for abandonware, and I haven't had the time to check this out for myself. Also, it seems around three people are selling it on Amazon.com, but does this count towards a "sold" status?

Copyrights don't "expire" in less than 75 years or so (may vary country to country, of course).
