Ashen Empires, formerly known as Dransik, is a two-dimensional MMORPG owned by Iron Will Games. It was released for a free, open beta in 2002 and later officially released in 2003.
The modern game was originally known as Dransik, and was an upgraded version of the original Dransik game (now known as Dransik Classic and available to play through the same launcher as Ashen Empires), which utilized an older graphics engine. The game was first launched through an open, free beta in September, 2002, by its original publisher, Asylumsoft Inc. . After the beta-testing stage was complete, the game started following a pay-to-play model on March 10, 2003. At that time, a monthly subscription fee was required to play (a business model seen in many MMORPG's, including World of Warcraft and EverQuest). At a later date, however, Iron Will Games, the company which now owns Ashen Empires, decided to allow users to play for free, but with a limited experience until a subscription is purchased, and this is the subscription model currently used.
