Yesterday my niece has asked me to install some sort of Korean horse racing game on her laptop, but everything seemed sketchy about the website, downloads and the installer.
The game seems to run fine in my WM, but it still smells fishy.
I started digging around and this is what I got:
-It's some sort of private server because the original server has closed years ago.
-There's a Russian dude working on it all alone, running the game on his own server and reconstructing the game from scratch.
-The guy can't make any profit on it because he doesn't own the rights for the game.
So why would anyone spend so much time and resources on this if there's no profit to be made?
Could this be used for a botnet?
Is this even safe for the target audience?
Could the guy access files etc. on the clients computers?
The game's website:

Are you new to dead videogame userbases or something? I've seen people rebuild a game from the ground up on a newer engine for free just so they could keep playing.

not OP but as the "tech guy" from the family, it's always better to check the shit they ask you to install because when it fuck up their shitbox then one way or another it will be you who will have to fix that clusterfuck of malware and adds
