Evaluation

Blockbuster Inc. - Prologue was a free prologue released on February 1, 2024, intended to let players test the game and provide feedback ahead of the full game's launch. The launch announcement explicitly described it as a free preview, with the full Blockbuster Inc. release targeted for Q2 2024. The prologue received several feature patches and bug fixes through April 2024, indicating active refinement during its availability window. However, the game currently has no purchase options available on Steam, meaning it has been removed from the storefront and can no longer be acquired. This is consistent with what typically happens to free prologues once the main game launches — the preview vehicle is retired. The prologue served its intended purpose as a pre-release demo for the full game.
Evidence
No purchase options are available for this game — it cannot be acquired on Steam.
