President Obama visited Poland again in June 2014 and had kind words to say about the game:
The last time I was here, Donald [Tusk] gave me a gift, the video game developed here in Poland that's won fans the world over, "The Witcher." I confess, I'm not very good at video games, but I've been told that it is a great example of Poland's place in the new global economy. And it's a tribute to the talents and work ethic of the Polish people as well as the wise stewardship of Polish leaders like Prime Minister Tusk.
If you're wondering why President Obama was given a copy of "The Witcher" in the first place, it's important to understand that "The Witcher" is not your average video game.
It's an incredible achievement for so many reasons.
