Freeserf is a project aimed at recreating the game engine of the first part of The Settlers I (Serf City, 1993). The remake reproduces the familiar gameplay - settlement building, resource management, courier work, logistics, and economy remain almost unchanged, preserving the nostalgic spirit and atmosphere of the original.
