Demolishing buildings: Left-
click on the desired building.
The second menu icon from

the left transforms into a ruin. Special-
click on this ruin to set the building on
fire and burn it down. If a serf lives in
the building, he returns to the castle
and waits for a new job.

Demolishing roads: Left-click
anywhere on a road and the
“demolish road” icon appears

in the menu. Special-click on this icon
to remove the road. The transporters
that worked on this road return to the
castle and wait for new work. The other
serfs on this road run toward the next
flag and continue on their way.

Demolishing flags: You can demolish 
a flag. Left-click on the flag that 
you want to remove and a ruin
appears in the menu (if the flag’s
demolition is possible).

Urban renewal: If you want to con-
struct a new building in the place of
another, select the old building and
then select the construction icon in
the menu. A new menu with a list of
buildings that can be built on the
construction site appears. Special-
click on the building you want and
the old building is burned down and
the new building is built.

In two-player mode, these
options can only be activated
by the player on the left. Left-

click on the right menu icon and new
options appear. For now, do not pay
attention to the upper icons, but only
to the SAVE option and END at the
bottom of the screen.

To quit the current game, left-click on
the  END option. The program asks
you to confirm. If you have been play-
ing for more than one minute or if you
have not saved the game after more
than one minute, the program asks you
to confirm a second time. You then
return to the main menu. To exit to
DOS, click on the small button at the
top left of the menu.

The SAVE option allows you to access
the saved game menu. The list of saved
games appears on the screen. To save
the current game, left-click on one of the
ten areas and then on the “New name”
option to enter a new name. If you want
to save a game with the same name as a
game already saved, you don’t have to
enter a new name. Be careful! The game
already saved is erased by the new
game. Left-click on the SAVE option to
save the current game.

On the Right Path

When the road leading to the first con-
struction site is built, the first serfs begin
to leave your castle.

The first serf who leaves the castle is a
transporter. He takes 100 steps on the
new road and looks to see if there is
some merchandise that needs to be
transported. As soon as he sees some
merchandise on the road to transport,
he takes it to the next flag.

At the beginning of the game, you have
twenty serfs. Some of them already
have jobs, others are waiting for jobs.

If you want to build a large building, a
serf with an orange helmet and a shovel
(the leveler) arrives and walks toward
the construction site. Once there, he
levels the ground. When he has fin-
ished, the cross on the site becomes a
building foundation and the serf returns
to the castle. A construction worker then
goes to the site to finish the building.

If you want to build a small building, a
serf with a yellow helmet (construction
worker) arrives and looks for his work
area. He then waits for the construction
materials to arrive so he can begin
building the house.

Another serf distributes the construction
material from the castle to the construc-
tion site; this is always wood and
eventually may include stones (depend-
ing on what type of building is being
built). The construction worker immedi-

ately begins working and you soon see
scaffolding; eventually, the building
itself is finished. Small huts are built
very quickly; larger buildings take
much longer.

The construction worker returns to the
castle as soon as he finishes his job. A
new worker then arrives to start work in
the new building. The occupation of
the worker who moves in depends on
the type of house that you built for him.
The functions of each worker and of
each building are explained further on.

If you construct a water way, a serf with a
boat leaves the castle and walks toward
the new water way. This serf is able to
use the water way to move merchandise.

You do not have to wait for the con-
struction of your house to be finished
before giving orders to construct other
things (houses, roads, etc.).

Your serfs go about their tasks automati-
cally when adequately supplied with
resources. This is true not only for the
transporters and the construction work-
ers, but also for all the other serfs that
you see later in the game.

You may want to demolish a building,
road, or flag for a number of reasons. To
avoid demolishing something by inad-
vertently pressing a mouse button, a
special-click is required to use the
demolish function.
