DOFUS - Official version

Dofus is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. In the Province of Amakna, the disappearance of the precious Dofus, dragon eggs, stirs up the fiercest desires. From the 4 corners of the world, adventurers rush in to get their hands on the immense powers contained in these eggs. All this commotion seems quite worrying, especially since rumors about the origin of the disappearance are stirring up trouble in the minds of the province's inhabitants. One thing is certain: whoever manages to find them all will control the destiny of all known and unknown lands.
