Disney yanked them after acquiring LucasArts.

I was so pissed when I went to re-download them and they disappeared even from my Purchased list. Complained to Apple and they basically said "shouda made backups, good bye and fuck off". $12 down the drain.

They still sell the enhanced editions on PC and Xbox (even works on One and Series X|S). Probably still PS3 too. They probably couldn't be bothered to update it to 64 bit on iOS.

Apple's 32-bit apocalypse killed so many games on both iOS and macOS.

The stupid bit is that iOS "backups" don't actually include your apps.

There really should be a "full backup" option.
