The Settlers (also known as Serf City, original German title Die Siedler) is a slow-paced Simulation computer game by German developer Blue Byte Software, first released in 1993 for Commodore Amiga and in 1994 for the PC (MS-DOS). It was the first game of its type, blending together principles which had not been seen in a single game before, and defined the line of the later Settlers games. On the hardware available at the time, the game could control a maximum of 64,000 individuals, all behaving autonomously.

Games[edit]

The series' original title in Germany is Die Siedler, marketed in the rest of Europe as The Settlers. When the game was first released in the United States, it was renamed Serf City by US publisher SSI. However, starting with the second part in the series, The Settlers also became the official title of the series in the US.

A new port of The Settlers 2 for the Nintendo DS was released in the UK on August 3, 2007, and in North America on August 21, 2007.
