Mod it

As a long time fan and owner of all settlers games (except the newest one) I have to suggest mod Return to the roots. It adds tons of features like: - new civilization Babylonians ! - support for modern resolutions - built in server for multiplayer - mouse wheel zoom in/out - smoother animations - speed adjustment of game from -2 to +4 with +/- keys - optional new textures. - quality of life features All that while respecting original game. I only discovered it this week and I am very happy with it.

Very Good Remake available

If you have the original Game Files (the ones from GOG must do it) there is on www.siedler25.de (don't worry the important things on that site are in english too) a very good remake. You can play it with higher resolution , with only Lobby , with more Options ... and it is still the same game!

Good game, disappointing bugs.

It's a very good game. I've spent many-many hours to find the gateways and dominate the islands. It's really exiting when you discover the area, find new resources and expand your territory. But the game begins to fail when you have to build ships and harbors. Sometimes the ships stuck in the harbor because the program can't calculate their way properly. It seems that they want to start their way through the land instead of the sea. This becomes more annoying when you have many harbors and many ships. They want to carry the resources to the new harbors but eventually more and more ships become unavailable with useful resources in their cargo bay and the new harbor never gets these resources. On some maps it is so unplayable that I stopped playing with this game.

Answer to some 1stars.

Guys. No tutorial? Maybe start the freaking campaign - and the first mission is an entire tutorial mission. TA-DAAA. Anyway, how difficult could it be figuring that trees need to be cut out, and replaced, wood need to be sawed, pigs need to be slaughtered, etc... I was like 12 years old, when i first played it, and strange, but it wasn't that hard for me. Too slow? Maybe try the F12 button! (Or F8, if not the F12, i don't remember it properly.) And a free tip to the end: P is for Pause. 3 stars from me is because tho it's very addictive, charming, and complex game, but it becoming very slow, when there is a halfcontinent size empire i rule, and the materials are transferred 1by1. Even if there are max number of material by the flags. And the whole empire just stands there, and doing nothing. Sometimes they just don't wanna bring things, because they wait for other things, etc.

for non nostalgic players... ok.

Short and sweet: I really enjoyed this for the first several hours tackling the first few levels. But the game is SUPER slow. I like building up cities and I really enjoy building and simulation games. I had never played this as a child, and felt it might be fun to try. In one of the levels, I organized poorly and after playing for maybe 6-8 hours, realized I had to restart. This is where things got super tedious, and I just had to put it down, realizing how many hours were disappearing on honestly, same old same old same old. Not bad, but not great. Though, I would probably reserve my money for a game that I didn't need to spend half the time trying to come up with something I could do in the hours between getting from point A to point B.
