The gods may be crazy! First the Almighty HE, the highest of all the gods, sends Jupiter, Horus, and Ch’ib-Yu off into an extremely arduous competition simply on account of some occasional drinking sprees! Then the three gods are subjected to scorn and derision: Q'nqura, the goddess of the Amazons, lets the trio win in battle out of pure spite, and then their humiliation is complete!

Like in the winehq arcticle written it runs smoothly on wine and debian. Have to use taskset to force running single threaded but after that.. all good.
If it don't start then Intro isn't disabled. Thats why the amazon campaign won't run - it starts an additional intro which can not be disabled (or I didn't found the option). But the usual campain and the mission pack running.
Great thing, I'm again Settler 3 addicted.
Loved the settlers 3 as a child and wanted to play them again after I saw somebody play them on YouTube. But sadly i can´t play game on my Computer. It´s just not working at all, because if you start the game and want to play for example the tutorial the game then asks you for the serialnumber which I just don´t have. Even when you get a serialnumber over Google, the game crashes when loading any map. I tried many bugfixes of this known problem but nothing helped. So I have to give this version of the Settlers only a 1 star review, even tho the game itself is a 4 star for me.
If anybody has any idea how to play this game on Win10 64bit Version, any tips are highly welcomed!
A lot of reviews here indicate that this game does not run or work on Windows 10. This is false, the game does, but there is something you have to do manually and there are several caveats.
Regarding the issues with serial number: You do not need to actually supply said serial number, instead you need to run a script in the Settlers 3 installation folder as an administrator, which is indicated in the FAQ section for this game. Go to your Settlers 3 installation folder (likely "C:\GOG Games\Settlers 3 Ultimate" or something similar), locate the script named "regs.cmd" and right-click, then run as administrator. You will no longer need the serial number and everything should just play.
The multiplayer problem is legitimate, as the license keys are exhausted. That said, local multiplayer still works, so you can work around this problem by using a VPN to connect with who you want to play with, then treat them like they're on your local subnet. This is kind of a lot, and not really worth it for many people, so if you are looking forward to more than local network multiplayer, I recommend not buying this. If you can work with that limitation, the game does run.
I have only played this on Windows 10, I do not know how it will work on Windows 11. The screen resolution is fixed and extremely bad at 800x600. If your monitor doesn't support this resolution, you likely will see nothing at all and need to reboot or force close the application or something. A good workaround is to use DxWnd to render the screen, so you can play on a window rather than fullscreen.
If you can deal with the above, Settlers 3 is still here and it is still very fun to play. I found myself caught in it again while testing.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
