I was looking for this title at Christmastime, and no one seemed to have it even though it was only a couple of months old. One major retailer had it in their system as not yet released, another had it listed as out of print, and several more stores had just never heard of it. When I finally found it on a store shelf, the employee had no idea it was there and had to ask me what it was.
These were all major chains, including EB and Amazon, and I finally found it at GameStop.
I repeat, that was Christmas. When people get games for presents. (I was searching for it as my own Christmas present because my parents were completely stumped by the the lack of availability.) That made me cringe, because how many more units would they have sold if people could actually find it, or could see it at the store?
Adventure games and independent developers have enough struggles without the problem of the games physically not being on the shelves for people who want them. I hope Arberth has better luck managing the chains of distribution themselves.
(P.S. Rhiannon is a great game and you should all play it. It was well worth the effort to find. )
