Description
In this game, the player builds lively, bustling towns in a medieval world. Everything is visible, lovingly animated and realistic. Each settler has his or her own daily routine, with a range of different actions and behaviours that can be observed by the player at all times. This enables him to get the best out of his Settlers, build up a flourishing economy, tend to his settlers' needs, and protect his empire against danger from the outside. By expanding his empire, the player can aspire to becoming a legendary king or queen. The most popular features of the predecessors in the series have been retained, and many of the fans desires and wishes were incorporated into the new game to create a very special Settlers atmosphere. The game features an immersive, yet transparent economic system based on the resources, wares and goods produced by the settlers in their various trades and occupations.

Special Features
  • The primary objective of the game is to create large, lively medieval towns.
  • The settlers interact with each other in a completely natural way and have wants and needs of their own.
  • Female settlers appear for the first time in the series: Men and women fall in love with each other and marry.
  • The lively, detailed game world is rich in animal and plant life.
  • The settlers' busy life is presented in lovingly rendered animations that show what is going on in a transparent way.
  • The world is divided into four climatic zones with changes of season and weather which influence expansion and resource gathering.
  • The game's instant accessibility and gentle learning curve ensure long-lasting fun; even in advanced game missions, new features are introduced.
  • All interventions by the player are reflected in the behaviour of his subjects and made transparent through the animations in the game world.
  • Starting with a small settlement, the player builds up flourishing towns, maintains trade relations, and claims land and villages. This requires diplomatic skills.
  • Mining, gathering resources, and food production result from wise planning and the various occupations of the settlers.
  • Goods transport is optimised through skilful road planning.
  • Upgrading buildings step-by-step improves the effectiveness of the economy and towns.
  • By hiring travelling entertainers and organizing fairs, the player acts as a matchmaker by enabling male and female settlers to get to know each other.
  • The player can build walls to protect his towns from enemy attacks. In military actions, the player must prove that he has built up his empire in such a way that it can defend itself effectively.
  • Missions featuring noble knights with various skills accompany the player through the epic storyline penned by Jeff Grubb.

    Description
    Welcome you are bidding on a BRAND NEW SEALED PC game ~THE SETTLERS: RISE OF AN EMPIRE (DVD-ROM).

    Packaging: DVD STYLE BOX

    Build a lively, bustling medieval town in The Settlers: Rise of an Empire. In this richly detailed, realistic world, you must create an expansive empire from scratch in an attempt to rule the entire nation. You'll have extensive control over choosing people, gathering resources, managing the food supply and more. Satisfy the needs of the settlers who will help you build your empire, or you won't have anything left to rule. From changing weather conditions to the repetitive tasks of daily life, your world becomes uniquely your own and more true to life than you ever thought possible. See if you can keep your people happy and win their support in your efforts to become a legendary ruler.

    Put plenty of thought into designing and building your town, so it can grow and prosper. For example, you must decide whether to use the sawmill to construct buildings or goods; each choice has both positive and negative consequences for your village's future. Entertain the settlers by hiring traveling performers and organizing a fair. Keep an eye on your resources, such as the supply of trees used for building and the number of wild animals for food, to ensure everyone's survival. Assign troops that will identify and thwart enemies that threaten your livelihood. Establish an empire that encompasses entire continents in Campaign mode, which requires you to pick the right combination of knights to accomplish missions. Test your skill in Freeplay mode, settling more and more territory at your own pace. Expand your domain via single-player or online multiplayer gameplay.
