I've been looking for a downloadable version of this forever, but that doesn't seem like it exists anymore. While I disagree with the decision to remove it since the game can be played in singleplayer, I still want to find a version I can buy and download without having to buy a physical copy and pay for shipping. Is it available anywhere, or should I just shell out the extra money for a physical copy?
