What they saw and who met – read more in this article.

Translator’s Rules

What imprinted on our memory in December was video 4 Rules of a True Translator. Video soon reached 1000 views, pleased us and Maksym Duvanov as creator in particular.

One episode received special attention from the viewers, so we publish it separately upon request. Use wisely.

Streams

We streamed three times in December: Naval Action (led by Tenevyk), S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Call of Prypiat (led by Oleksandr Lukianov) and Curious Expedition (led by Yura Dragon). Unfortunately, only Naval Action recording saved due to technical reasons.
