✦ AI summary

The Settlers: Rise of an Empire - History Edition is praised by players for its timeless gameplay and visuals that hold up well after more than a decade, with many nostalgic fans enjoying revisiting it. The main complaint is that the game requires a third-party launcher to play, which some players find frustrating enough to recommend purchasing the GOG version instead. Overall, players seem to view it as a worthwhile purchase for fans of the series and those looking for a solid strategy game, though the launcher issue may deter some buyers.

Great city building, simple and casual along with the battle strategy being the same. 10/10, sadly the newest one went with 0 freedom

A wonderful remaster of an old game! I really enjoyed coming back to this title for some good nostalgic indulgence. Although not entirely overhauled, the fact that I can once again play this game was enough for me. Uplay is involved, so that is something to keep in mind, but I did not find the launcher to be too intrusive.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
