Principle
The play is launched on April 14th, 2005 with Bologna in Italy. The play is downloadable free from the official site. Because of its weight (227 Mo for the Windows version, 198 for the Mac version), the players are invited to engrave it on CD-ROM to distribute it around them.
The initiative is noticed by the actors of the industry of the play. Some of them offer their assistance like Yahoo! Ranges which places the play at the disposal on its waiters or Ubisoft, Konami and Shanda which helps to translate it. Developed in partnership with Ubisoft, the French version of the play is available since mid-October 2006 (before, there existed in English, Japanese, Chinese, Italian or Polish) on the official site. The project seeks translators to translate the play into other languages and to touch more many people. However, the play is not under free license.
