Once upon a time ... The Witcher

Once upon a time ... The Witcher



Donate a penny to your Witcher, sang Dandelion (or Dandelion, in the books of the Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowskj), and for months many have done nothing but repeat the chorus of the song, making it become a real catchphrase as happened with The Rains of Castamere from Game of Thrones, sung by the Lannister soldiers under the moat wall of King's Landing. Donate a penny to your Witcher, a redundant tune, famous for many thanks to a TV series, for others a source of pride as they vaguely knew of its existence having previously played The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

But the real success of that tune is hidden behind a tradition made up of books, written by a Polish author and reinterpreted by a handful of developers, in a story that could only begin in the most traditional of ways ...

Once upon a time there was a development team called CD Projekt RED that led millions of players around the world created by the pen of a former Polish banker with a great passion for fantasy. And here we are, fifteen years later, talking about The Witcher, again, as if we didn't already have enough and with the same passion as then. The Witcher, before being a great production of modern times, is a cultural phenomenon that has been able to offer players and readers from all over the world a totally unforgettable reality.
