    30 years after its first release, 'The Settlers 2' is finally getting an official licenced Amiga port. The game launches October 18th. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/the-set...

    The Settlers almost made it to Game Boy Advance, with a small Hyperion team developing for Ubisoft. Simon Butler recalls it being only a month or two from completion when suddenly cancelled. Could a prototype still survive? (Amiga shot via Lemon Amiga) www.gamesthatwerent.com/2026/09/the-...

    A favorite DOS game of mine was The Settlers 2, which was IMO the BEST town building game at the time by a longshot, and honestly, still holds up today. The Settlers was pretty unique in its mechanics. It focuses around resource chains and supplying resources to citizens to power buildings.

    Amiga players who loved The Settlers were disappointed when the sequel only came to PC. Now, nearly 30 years later, Settlers 2 is getting an Amiga release, and it's officially licensed by Ubisoft. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/the-set...

    The Settlers 2 was my favorite town building game for a long time. Sorry SimCity fans, but The Settlers was WAY better. It actually made sense, and when your towns weren't growing the way you expected them to, you could figure out what the problem was and fix it! I never could do that in SimCity.

    Also, my goodness we need to figure out better ways of talking about the Settlers of Catan. That game is so much stranger and more alive than "look ma, folks like being the colonizers." Mechanically, its entirely about interdependence and how geography shapes our relationship even as we shape it.

    Catan is probably easy. They changed their name from The Settlers of Catan to just Catan, and one random... Interesting fellow I met at a ttrpg and board game space seemed grumpy about that. Fortunately, I think the grifters are just entirely unaware/don't think there's much money in it.

    One reason I'm incredibly fond of "The Settlers of Catan" is that it's even fun when you're losing. Once someone pulls ahead in Monopoly, it feels like the board game equivalent of Stalingrad.

    The Settlers on the Amiga was the game that convinced me that procedural generation was awesome. Here we had a functioning and often really cool looking world created with no care about me or my opponents - we just had to work with what we got. Nobody had created it, it wasn't a pretend world.

    A game like this is best enjoyed if you're familiar with the board game, which I highly recommend. We still have the old version, which translated as "Settlers of Catan". They removed the Settlers-part, because dark history gets in the way when playing a game, apparently... 😅

    I loved the original Settlers (Settlers II was similar.) The later games got more RTS-ish, and I’m not a big fan. The original developer did a spiritual remake - Pioneers of Pagonia. The combat side of Pioneers is perhaps less interesting, but the early game captures the Settlers charm.

    Yes of course I would agree. I'd also debate that as a sandbox, the game is what you make it. It definitely was the platform for many new gamers to try something like Stardew. Minecraft is like the Settlers of Catan of video games. Perfect launchpad to more diverse options.

    Most people would do what the game buyers do. Just buy The Settlers of Catan ;) For an average Joe there's little difference between Opus 4.5 and 4.6. And if (or once) 4.6 (or whatever) proves to be a winner, there's little risk in switching. Most folks are in the (early or late) majority.
