27.08.2023 - Update of WIP Amiga game 'Settle the World' (270823) released
Settle the World is a turn-based building and trading game with a focus on local multiplayer (up to four players on one Amiga computer), which you can download for free. In this so called 'The -Farm-Update' lays the technical foundations for the future development of the game. For this purpose, a large part of the programme code was rewritten, which unfortunately took several months. Pioneers can now build farms after the citizens of your cities have reached the worker class for the first time. Farms are needed later in the game to supply the aristocrat class with meat and wine.
