About the game

What you do in a play session

In Settlement, you lead a group of settlers in uncharted lands, where magical artifacts and legendary heroes can turn the tide. Your goal? To turn your humble settlement into the most prosperous and famous in the realm! Each round, you'll explore terrains, hunt dangerous monsters, and construct strategic buildings, all while wisely managing your settlers and resources. The heroes you recruit not only grant victory points but also provide unique abilities. But beware: time is short, and in six rounds you must decide when to pass to secure the best turn order next phase. With tile placement, set collection, and end-game bonuses, Settlement balances strategy and adaptation in a medieval-themed fantasy world. Will your settlement become legendary?
