Hi, is this game completely freeware? or sometihng like abandonware

Hi, could you elaborate please ?

OpenClaw source code is open under attached GPLv3 license - https://github.com/pjasicek/OpenClaw/blob/master/LICENSE.txt

CLAW.REZ (original game's assets) is property of Warner Bros (originally by Monolith Games which was bought by WB in 2004).

so it is legal to play game with original claw.rez file?

If you obtained the CLAW.REZ file by buying the original game in some legal way (e.g. gog.com), then yes, it is strictly legally speaking 100% legal. It follows the same philosophy as OpenTTD.

Could you elaborate please ? I am not versioning the CLAW.REZ in this repository. It is up to everyone to get their own copy of the CLAW.REZ (be it "legal" or otherwise :) )

This is also explicitly stated in the project's README.md:
