It’s worth noting at this point that both sides of Anno’s city-construction are wonderful to watch in motion. You could be the King of Steel in the Old World, only to find your economy collapsing because someone in the New World stole an island that produces all your cotton.Įither way, you’ll need to set up trade routes to get these exotic goods to your increasingly needy (and populous) citizenry. This effectively means a game of Anno 1800 plays out on two unique RTS maps at once, which has all sorts of tactical considerations if you’re playing in multiplayer. The New World is represented on an entirely different map, and has unique citizen types, production chains, and resources. So to acquire these, you need to build ships and send them to explore the New World. The latter of these, of course, requires raw materials that don’t grow in a European climate. Once you unlock the third tier of “citizen”, Artisans, you’ll need an infrastructure capable of supporting the production of sewing machines, fur coats, and rum.

This unlocks the next evolutionary stage of your settlement, letting you construct more advanced buildings like brickworks and breweries. Once a farmhouse reaches its maximum population, it can then be upgraded to house the next class of citizen-workers. The better you meet those needs, the more people will fill the houses of your village. You’ll need acres of potato fields that can be distilled into schnapps, while also ensuring all farmsteads are within staggering distance of a pub. But to make them happy, you need to ply them with alcohol. Farmers, for example, simply require clothes and fish to subsist. Each “class” of person has a different set of requirements that you need to meet. Progress is Anno is predicated upon two things-population growth and meeting the needs and wants of your citizens. ![]() In its early stages, Anno 1800 is a straight-up city-builder.
