Description
Includes the original The Settlers® IV and its two expansions: The Settlers® IV: The Trojans and the Elixir of Power and The Settlers® IV Mission CD along with a random map generator.

Just because of a little uprising, Morbus has been banished to Earth by HIM, the highest god of all. It really could not have been worse for this particular villain, as Morbus cannot bear the sight of anything green. He definitely doesn’t plan on letting it stay that way – his Dark Tribe will soon be waging war on the Earth’s flora and fauna.

The Romans, the Mayans, the Vikings, and the Trojans are the four industrious little races you’ll be settling with. The seamless zoom function allows you to take a close-up peek as your settlers go about their daily business, or to zoom out for a bird’s-eye view of how your very own empire is coming along. Put your settling skills to the test as you gather resources, establish and manage trade routes, manufacture goods, or wage war. It’s up to you to lead your tiny settlers to victory! Are you up to the task?

  • Iron supplies at an end? Maybe you can get your hands on some of your neighbor’s surplus metal by trading in some of those coal reserves!
  • Four races with their own campaigns: the Romans, the Mayans, the Vikings, and the Trojans. Each has their own individual style in dress, weapons, alcohol, and magic!
  • Show off your tactical genius and steel your defenses by appointing Squad Leaders and deploying your soldiers with more precision than ever before!

Multiple islands missions are a pain

For most part the game is solid, except when water transport get introduced, because then game becomes a lottery when (not if) it will crash. Whatever you do do not allow your transport ship to ever get destroyed, it will permamently stop the trading and any attempt to pause/resume, rebuilding an harbour will result in 100% crash.

Frustrating

I've been struggeling with this game now for quite a while now. The mechanics are not very complex - and that makes it really annoying. The AI, even on the lowest setting, is incredibly strong and violent. For less then one hour on a map and it already spams you with waves of entire armies until your small settlement you have slowly and carefully been building, is completely destroyed. And if for once you have an army, you are of course not able to guide it like with real strategy. But your soldiers just stand there and attack until they are all wiped out. Retreat when injured and maybe heal? Of course not! Trade or diplomacy is also not working at all, at least it doesn't seem to have any ingame value. Those buildings are just plain useless. Not to mention the annoying building system which basicly prohibits building new buildings on almost all of the map. All in all a pretty sad experience I must admit. Shouldn't have wasted my money on this.

Works perfectly on Windows 10!

I really loved playing this game in the early 2000's. I was a bit afraid if the GOG release would work when I saw the 2 reviews here that it doesn't run on Windows 8/10, but decided to give it a chance. After all, those reviews are from 2015, now it's 2021, maybe everything is fixed now? The game costs €9.99, so there isn't really a lot to lose. I couldn't have been more excited: the game works perfect on my recent W10 laptop! I have been playing it now for several hours without a problem. €9.99 very well spent! Job well done by GOG :)

Where is the remake?

Settlers 4 is Settlers 3 on steroids, with everything more and better. Is it really that costly for Ubisoft to remake the last good part of the Settlers series?
