Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Pretty much the title... What i want to know why it closed down? what happened to it's developers?

Are there any chinese private server running?

Did igg have the source code for top2? 

 

I would really appreciate if someone shed some lights on these question.

1. if i recall correctly, moliyo went bankrupt

2. There are atleast 1 chinese private server running that im aware of

3. IGG was just the publisher of top2, not the developer, so no Source code

PGS is the only company atm that has the license of TOP directly from moliyo for the coming 10 years.
Includes the source codes of top2 of course.

@cpworkerz

 

I googled this company, it was incorporated on 17 June 2021 (6 months ago). The company is also listed on Wikipedia as a developer and publisher on 1 December 2021, but i wouldn't trust this information without any proofs.

Personally, I highly doubt any company has or could have a proper license that allows to work on the source code completely legally. As for the Wikipedia, anybody could edit any page at any given time on there (or create a new one, too), so that doesn’t necessarily mean that it is true 😀 Moliyo can no longer grant license for this game unless they decided to re-sell the files they created about 15 years ago which is extremely unlikely given that their contract and own license is probably no longer valid either.

 

however, I could be wrong and pgs could in fact have somehow acquired a license.
