I was looking for a pretty niche indie game, but I wanted to try it out before purchasing... The only link that still works is made by a user who made their account 4 years ago and about 700 posts, but also 1 warning.

How do I know whether or not I should trust this link?

Is the game older, that no active links remain? In that case any up to date antivirus should find whichever malware might be embedded in the game easily.

It's not that old, just a bit niche.
