Dear Settlers,

Join us on a mystical journey we discover Fuerst_Vlad's "Floating Islands"; an array of castles, rare buildings and levitating isles surrounded by rolling clouds!

We're proud to have such talented and visionary settler in our community. But don't just take our word for it: take a look at the full map in our forums!

Dear Settlers,

The upcoming version brings along various game improvements and localization fixes. The in-game guild market voting system will also be technically implemented, but its activation will take place later, after further internal tests.

The new game version will be made available on 21.11.2017! Read all about it in the latest Change Log published in our forums.

Happy settling!
