This game initially started as our entry for the Liberated Pixel Cup 2012.
(see http://lpc.opengameart.org)
Back then it was called 'Lurking Patrol Comrades'
It is a massive multiplayer online roleplay game.

Starting the game
======
We are using manasource technology as our engine, so you need to install
the mana client.

Currently, playing the game is only possible with our modded client. See the [wiki](https://github.com/tales/sourceoftales/wiki/Installation-of-client) for install instructions.

Once you have the mana client installed,
connect to server testing.manasource.org with server type ManaServ at Port
9601.

There you go.
