Pixel Mine, Inc. has agreed to publish all Iron Will Games titles through the Pixel Mine Portal. As a result, the Iron Will Games launcher will no longer be used to play and patch Ashen Empires and Dransik Classic. They will be accessible only through the Pixel Mine launcher. In addition,  Windows 98 users will no longer use a separate launcher.

To play, please download the Pixel Mine launcher here and log in using the same information you used to log in to the Iron Will Games launcher.

IMPORTANT: Once you have downloaded the Pixel Mine Launcher, we recommend that you manually move your user files to the new Pixel MIne folder in order to preserve you configuration settings. To do this, you will need to move the Ashen Empires / Dransik folders that are located in the Iron Will Games folder to the Pixel Mine folder. If not, you will have to patch these game files again and will lose any custom settings. Below is a short walkthrough explaining how to do this. If you are having trouble with this transfer please email Tech Support.

1. Open your Iron Will Games folder (typically C:\Program Files\Iron Will Games)


2. Open your Pixel Mine Games folder (typically C:\Program Files\Pixel Mine)


3. Select both the Ashen Empires and Dransik folders by pressing CTRL left click.


4. Drag both folders into the Pixel Mine folder, or right click in the Pixel Mine folder and choose "Copy Here".
