Knights and Merchants

Someone trying a multiplayer? ... Is it woking ?

This came was impossible to play when it first came out because serfs couldn't walk by each other. This issue seems to be some what corrected but now you see how awful the game play is. This sim is suppose to focus on combat more compared to Settlers. The controls are awful and as others point out no difficulty setting so if you want to focus on the economy part of the game forget about it. When its all said and done for less than two dollars this game isn't work it. Get Settlers 2 instead.

The resource collection and city development in this game is very linear. Whats more you have to build roads between buildings before they can even be constructed, which feels limiting enough but when my builders got stuck on their own road and refused to make any further progress, I decided I didn't want to waste any more time on this game.

Less complex economics than Settlers with a terrible combat system added to it. I used to like it when it came out - but time was not kind to this game. Recommend only to people with lot of time and patience. If I had to pick, I would say go with Settlers 2.

I had purchased this game on GOG several years ago and it played fine. Today I loaded it up and the mouse was not working properly. Did they make a change to the game? The steam version may run better, or even buying a physical copy off ebay.
