What has happened to Logicrucible, Inc. (formerly of www.logicrucible.com), and where can I find/purchase/download copies of their software products, Astrologicus Galaxy Simulator, and Terralogicus World Simulator? For bonus points, did the City Simulator ever get built? :) |

They are out of business, their phone number is no longer in service, and all of the threads on Usenet or message boards I found on topic were similar dead ends. The Internet Archive (http://webdev.archive.org) shows the company's website working up to Oct 27, 2000 and having been taken over by a porn site as of Sep 26, 2001. I tried finding out who the person behind the software was, but he always posted as "Logicrucible," so that's a dead-end a well. Three possible leads: 1) Find out who was DBA Logicrucible, Inc. and try to locate and contact him somehow. 2) Send a message via snailmail to the address given for Logicrucible Inc. in every case I found, from 1994 Usenet to their own website in 2000: PO Box 9885 Kansas City MO 64134-0885 3) Find someone who has a purchased copy of the software and buy it from him. The City Simulator is pointedly not mentioned as an extant product on the archived Logicrucible website, so it seems to have been never made. The legal status of the software is unknown to me, so even if I could find a place to download it, I couldn't point you to it. nauster-ga |

Thanks for your comment. This is pretty much everything I know, but some of the details are potentially useful, or at least interesting. (What does a porn site want with the "logicrucible" brand name? Are they that desperate for accidental customers?) If I get desperate, I'll investigate that PO Box, but I'm still hoping that someone can find any more useful information and score the prize money. |

The company is DF (Administratively Dissolved for failure to file an Annual Report), and have not filed a report since 1999. The agent is Scott G. Coleman, and his listed address is the same address mentioned above. Maybe you can find him via the White Pages or something. http://www.sos.state.mo.us/BusinessEntity/charter.asp?cn=00391978 |
