Widelands is a free, open source real-time strategy game with singleplayer campaigns and a multiplayer mode. The game was inspired by Settlers II™ (© Bluebyte) but has significantly more variety and depth to it.

Everyone who played and loved “The Settler 2” should give this a try. It has even more depth and removed a lot of the quirks like managing the stationing of trained soldiers.
How mature is the game? Can it be recommended to players looking for a complete experience or are there still many bugs and obviously unfinished features?
I would definitely recommend to try it out right now. I‘ve never encountered any bugs and it is very polished overall. I think the only things that are unfinished are some story campaign scenarios, but there are enough in different difficulties to keep you busy for quite some time.
PS: It works great on Steam Deck!
Thanks, I’ll give it a go!
Interesting. The graphics remind me of Tropico 2: Pirate Cove.
