Dofus

About Dofus

Dofus is a Flash based massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed and published by Ankama Games, a French computer game manufacturer. During the beta, while the game was still in development the game was free-to-play (f2p). It is now primarily a Pay to Play, but it still also offers a limited amount of free content. Dofus is set in the world of Amakna (which is Ankama spelled backwards). Its success has led to the marketing of spin-off products, like books, art books and comics, and with the development of two continuations: Dofus Arena, a turn based tactical online multiplayer game, released at the beginning of 2006, is an alternative "tournament" version of Dofus; and Wakfu which is currently in closed beta to the French Wakfusian community. As the Dofus community continued to grow, new areas and add-ons are added. The developers continually add new content as well as balance items/classes.

The game has attracted nearly seven million players worldwide and is well known in France according to the French Agency for Video Games.

Dofus has received international gaming awards including the Bytten Ernie Award for Best Graphics And Concept Art in 2007 and the Audience Award at the Independent Game Festival in 2006.
