Hey settlers, Today we surprise you with a big update, on the one hand with a new animal and new maps, on the other hand with a ton of changes regarding balancing and quality of life. Here we go : Pike: Finally, the trout has a natural enemy that keeps the population under control. The pike hunts smaller fish and can be fished just like the trout.
New Mountain Map: A new mountain map is now available. On it you will find additional iron ore but also an extremely cold climate!
New Moderate Map: A new fertile map with interesting cliff formations. Perfect for agriculture to support even larger cities with food
New Desert Map: A new desert map with additional copper but extremely hot climate!
Thanks to your feedback, we've also made a lot of balancing and quality of life changes. You can find the detailed patch notes below. Your Team Kerzoven
