Video overview of Settlers

Settlers is a real time strategy game released by Blue Byte back in 1993 for the Amiga PC. t's one of my personal favorites of all time, and it's now available for the iPhone and iPod touch!

It's a relatively obscure game series that has seen 5 or 6 iterations on the PC and on the Nintendo DS.

I'd like to do a full-fledged review, but Settlers is a REALLY hard game to summarize in under 10 minutes. Maybe in the future I'd do another video highlighting other gameplay aspects, such as mining, combat, tool and weapon building, etc.

For now, here's a brief overview of basic gameplay. If you have any questions about the game, feel free to leave them in the comments section.

@Ipod1Reviewer thanks!

No problem. I actually bought the game after watching your video last night for a whopping $4.99 but it was worth it. I favorited the video as well. May have to revisit it, game is very in depth.

@Ipod1Reviewer it's by far one of my favorite games on the iPhone. I've always been a huge fan of the Settlers franchise.

If only it had endless/freeplay mode... sigh.

the game is amazing I don't have it for the iPhone but I will get it for the pc the setlers 7 it's truely really rich in content it will be hard for any of you guys to get sick of the game or to think it's girly. it realt does make you think and that's a good thing I like MW2 but I also like to think and have strategies and worry how to expand, feed my setlers, and get resources and many more things.
