In July we hosted a giveaway for Das Tal, a sandbox MMO by German studio Fairytale Distillery. The game has since been renamed to The Exiled and a new alpha test begins today, ending on December 21st. We have 500 keys for you to grab below. In case you want to learn more about the game first, here's the official description and feature set as provided by the developers.
The Exiled is a social sandbox MMO where survival strategy meets skill-based PvP combat.
Cooperate or conquer, craft or combat; every decision is critical as you seek to flourish in a forsaken valley. A classless system means you shape your character to fit your style of play. With no grind, full loot and unrestricted PvP clashes, you must constantly balance risk and reward as you decide how to interact with the world and your fellow players. Craft equipment, construct your settlements and build alliances, as you explore challenging open world environments with unique geography and features. Each skirmish and siege will define your fate, as you vie to win your freedom from … The Exiled.
