GIO Docker Desktop

This guide outlines the steps to set up the GIO server using Docker Desktop on your Windows system with WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) enabled.

What are the benefits of playing this old version? You can relive some of the most nostalgic past events that will never come back forever, such as: Windblume (1.4), Golden Apple Archipelago (1.6 & 2.8), Shadows Amidst Snowstorms (2.3), Three Realms Gateway Offering (2.5), and The Lantern Rite (1.3 & 2.4). Also, you can play Ayaka (the character released in 2.0) in CBT.
