Pros: - nice graphics even in 2026 - controls are mostly intuitive - cute cartoon characters - simplified city builder Cons: - storyline could have been better - simplified city builder That's my quick analysis from playing the original (Settlers 1) and years of playing RTS games. As much as I prefer RTS style games, I personally feel Blue Byte made the wrong decision with combat in this game. The city building element of the Settlers games is what made them great. Over the years, more and more focus has been put on adding combat to Settlers. In doing so, they've ruined what truly made Settlers great. That said, there were some design decisions I like about Settlers 7. I like the cartoony graphics. I find them tasteful. The presentation is well done, but the storyline itself is dumb. It's a typical girl boss princess vs evil white dude trope. It's tired and overused. I will admit the story is told well, even if it's a bad story. Overall it's a great game. I would recommend it.

I am gladly surprised about this game, which brings back the idea of dedicated Settlers and roads to transport the ressources like in the 2nd opus. The campaign offers a wide range of strategies to win, even if I see one which is always best unfortunately : rushing the church and trying to stop the bots to develop technologies + not taking care of the market + medium push on the military. This is the result of allowing researches (very powerful for some) to be owned by only one player. Except this detail, the game is fine, the General's bonuses are a nice add too, as well as the leveling up to unlock new buildings and upgrades. I understand that fans of the old Settlers, which can be played as a Sims City, don't like it much (because bots allows you to play really slow and to take time to develop an outstanding economy). The game here is forcing you to be faster than your opponent on different sides, and I guess it is normal for a strategy game. Thank you to Ubisoft to give us harder bot opponents ! Of course, the oldies were the best opus in my opinion too, but more by nostalgy. Because this one is actually very fine. I regret the nice add of the previous opus about Settlers increasing needs, which was brilliant in my opinion (maybe because I like Anno license as well)

A very fine game but the stupid ubisoft launcher is so annoying, keeps asking for password and still the online content (additional adornments) does not work half/most of the time. Gonna still recommend the game.

This is a yes game. It is the same game basically as the "Gold Edition", but has better support on newer systems since that old game came out and now features 4K resolution. This game is fun and has a nice Real Time Strategy feel to it. i like to play it and the challenge is decent. There were glitches at some point and if you find the game crashing than try to play the scenario again from the beginning for that specific battlefield and don't use any previous saves for that battlefield. Even with that one glitch issue this is a nice game. I do wish that the game company who owns this would have expanded MORE on having more rewards and more to do, like more scenarios and maps. It is nice to play now and again.
