Why a cancelled game remains in the database
Citadel of Sorcery is useful as a historical sandbox MMORPG record even though its status is listed as cancelled. SandboxMMORPGs is not limited to currently playable games: abandoned projects can help explain the genre's development and give players a record of games they may remember from earlier MMO communities.
The profile avoids filling gaps in the historical record with speculation. Several details are marked “Not documented” because the surviving first-party information is limited. That is preferable to turning old promotional material or secondary recollections into apparently current facts.
How to read the entry
The sandbox tags describe the game's intended or documented design direction, not a claim that those systems are currently playable. The cancellation status is therefore more important than the feature tags when deciding whether the game is something a reader can actually play.
Why historical entries are useful
Keeping cancelled projects visible also makes the database more useful for research. Readers can compare older sandbox designs with surviving games and see which ideas persisted across the genre, without confusing historical projects with active recommendations.
