No verified official Steam listing for Lionhead’s 2001 Black & White was found, and GOG says the game is not on its store. A Steam game with the same name is a different title. GOG’s page lets players vote to bring the original to the platform.
Is Black & White on GOG?
No. GOG’s official Dreamlist page for Black & White (2001) says, “We couldn’t find this game on GOG,” and invites users to vote to bring it to the store. The entry identifies the game as a Lionhead Studios title and lists Mac and Microsoft Windows PC as its platforms.

Is the original Black & White on Steam?
The Steam result found for a game called Black & White is not Lionhead’s 2001 game. Steam identifies that listing’s developer as ZerocreationGame, publisher as CubeGame, and release date as March 16, 2023. Those credits and date distinguish it from the original. The checked result does not verify an official Steam release of Lionhead’s game.
What’s actually slowing this PC down?
Pick the symptom - the matching free tool is one click away.
Check the developer and publisher before buying or adding a same-name game to your library. The relevant Steam support result describes the 2023 title, not the 2001 Lionhead release.

Can you still get the 2001 game?
GOG’s platform listing supports looking for original physical PC media, such as a used Windows PC CD-ROM, but does not confirm that copies are currently for sale. Current stock, seller reliability, disc condition, and compatibility with modern computers have not been established here.
If you find a resale listing, confirm that it is specifically Lionhead’s 2001 game. Check the edition, what media and materials are included, the condition of the disc, and any operating-system compatibility details supplied by the seller. A used copy is not the same as a currently supported digital store release.

The available store information establishes that GOG does not currently list the original and that the surfaced Steam result is a different game. It does not establish why the original is absent; there is no verified explanation here about rights, licensing, or other causes.
