Dear Settlers,

The Excelsior has travelled to destinations far from anything your Settlers have ever heard of. In September, we asked you to write about her adventures! We received over 200 stories and decided to increase the amount of rewards :)!

Congratulations to the winners:
Julie3 (DE) & Thejollyone (UK)!

Read more details in our forum.

Thanks for your work and happy settling!

Dear fox-ish Settlers, 

with the latest Firefox version many details changed "under the hood". This caused an invisible layer no to disappear when the game is started. As a result nothing can be done inside the game, although it's loaded properly.

Our developers are working on a fix. Since it's a website based issue, no game update is needed to apply the changes. We will update this post once the improvement has been deployed.

How can you still play?

• Please use our "Slim Browser" to be able to play
• Use Firefox portable version 48.0.2 or lower
• Use another Browser like Chrome, Edge or Internet Explorer

Happy Halloween Event!
The Settlers Online Team
