12.01.2018SOS Sonya
Dear Settlers,
It is quite uncommon for a Captain of a famous ship to send out SOS signals. Surely, something serious is at stake if Sonya needs your help. Are you up to the task?

Read her full story in our forums and carefully choose the next step which will decide Sonya's fate. Let's try to help her out!
Good luck!

25.12.2017Gifts from... Mr Scrooge!?
Dear Settlers,
There have been whispers of a madman running down your streets in nothing but his old-fashioned pyjamas, handing out gifts to everyone he sees while screaming "Merry Christmas"! This most peculiar event aside, you can't say no to free presents!

Warm wishes for this festive season and happy holidays!
Your "The Settlers Online" Team
