The German and English language version of the game are available.
==Gameplay==
In this game, you must build the economic infrastructure and as well manage the construction of roads in order for you to expand and go to war.

One of the most important aspect of Widelands is the road system. Well optimized road system keeps goods moving, which mean people can train and equip troops faster.

Some resources in widelands are renewable, but however requires specific workers(such as rangers or foresters) to ensure that these resources don't disappear. However, some resources are only of limited quantity. Once they're used up, they're gone forever.

Expansion of territory is done by the construction of military buildings and filling them with soilders. The bigger the military building is, the more territory it will control.
===Tribes===
Currently, there are three tribes that players can play as. They are Barbarians, Imperials, and the Atlanteans.
*'''Barbarians''': A tribe that is located in the north. They are master users of axe. For this reason they have the fastest lumberjacks in the game. They are not dangerous as long as you don't interfere with their affair. They are simplistic and practical in the sense that they do not make beautiful but useless wares.<ref>[http://xoops.widelands.org/modules/mediawiki/index.php/Game_Help:Barbarians Barbarians from Widelands wiki guide]</ref>
*'''Imperials''': An empire located in the Gulf of Peralis. Their empire is built on the foundation of great inventions. They also believe that their rulers are god. However, they are experiencing internal conflicts as the emperor's sons fight amongst themsleves to be the successor.<ref>[http://xoops.widelands.org/modules/mediawiki/index.php/Game_Help:Imperials Imperials from Widelands wiki guide]</ref>
*'''Alteateans''': The most advanced tribe in the entire game. Even their buildings requires special materials and knowledge to construct. However, the building themselves were very useful.<ref>[http://xoops.widelands.org/modules/mediawiki/index.php/Game_Help:Atlanteans Atleateans from Widelands wiki guide]</ref>

==Development==
The development team of Widelands consist of 24 members.<ref>[http://sourceforge.net/project/memberlist.php?group_id=40163 Sourceforge.net membership list for Widelands]</ref> For Build13, the release will come sometime in November.<ref>[http://xoops.widelands.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=39 Widelands official plans for Build13]</ref>
