- I've tried contacting Sam Palahnuk, who worked on Nomad, on Twitter about the game. Personally, I think the game was acquired by Take Two when they acquired GameTek. But until we know for sure, I'd ask people who worked at each development studio.

- I've asked Playmate Toys about what happened to the rights to Playmates Interactive Entertainment games, and they say that they have no inventory of those properties. I hope they understood my question correctly.
- Mr. Mark Giambruno tells me that Virgin Games (or whoever owns them now) ought to have the rights to the games Critical Path and The Daedalus Encounter.
- Got a reply from Ant Software that they still have the rights to Shadows of Cairn, but it would be a lot of work to update it to run on modern systems. I thought that there was a DOS version they could release though. We'll see. :)

That's where I'll post as definitive an answer as I can get on my end for a game's rights.
- Clipper Software (Clipper Computer Products Ltd.), the developer behind Touché: The Adventures of the Fifth Musketeer, still exists.
