Hi MichaelPreiss I am glad to hear you got access to the correct link, and thank you so much for sharing your resolution here on the Community 😁
I’d love to hear how you’re using Dropbox, if you’re open to sharing! I’m always curious about different workflows and would love to pick up any tips that could benefit you or our internal teams.
Thanks,

the link is shared with anyone who pays for the game. I paid my money. everyone else can easily download the game through this exact link
