Figured I'd post on this in case (like me) anyone happened to stumble by. While it is true most of the heavily modded servers are down, after paying a visit to the WiA Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/WhispersInAkarra) a few of the folks there and myself really wanted to see a shard back up and running. Now that I have had a computer worth a damn, I host a server 24/7 for nostalgic purposes. If you have FB, give the page a like, and you'll see the post where I give the IP needed to log in. All of the other tools you need are right here on the website. I'm only dabbling right now in any kind of edits, as time is too short to really dig into anything serious. Regardless, I don't mind keeping it running, and I hope if you've got even the faintest of fond memories with the game that you'll stop by and play with the rest of us. Also, if anyone happens to have the other source code to the client or editors and wouldn't mind file sharing, I'd appreciate it. The current website where it was hosted has been shut down, and I don't see it coming back up in the foreseeable future. :) Talk soon, Kao Hey y’all.

Totally loved this game when it was out and played from some of the earlier pre-alphas until the game was finally shut down. Right now there are no active shards are there? I was wondering if anyone knew the contact information of anyone who further developed the game and had a latest patch (I suppose) or version of the game available. All of the old shard's websites seem to be inactive at the moment and it would be a great shame to let everyone's work, including the people who released new updates on their shards go to waste! I would love to play this game again in my own home with some friends and I would really appreciate it if anyone had any knowledge about who I could contact! It's True Luthor :D!! Hello Guys!

Those are some of my fondest memories as a teenager. Truly a great game with potential seeping out of every corner it could. Jeb: Don't stop what you're doing. Keep up the fantastic work.

Caught the tail end of the original right before it went down. Ten years later I hear of Minecraft and get sucked into it as well. I see the name Jens Bergensten and think, "Why does this name seem so familiar." Then I put "Khaile" in the middle and it all makes sense. I don't even consider myself a huge gamer, but it's just amazing to see such a transition over ten years which have flown by. Whispers in Akarra was such a great game, I just loved the style and the simplicity of it. I would love to see it revisited someday, but either way, you guys have done some great work over the years. Might have to check out one of those active shards and go kill Kal Zatra sometime. Happy belated anniversary, Oxeye! Hard work pays off and I look forward to more great things to come.
