Anno 1404: Dawn of Discovery

As with other Anno games, the player starts as leader of an unarmed country which must colonize and expand in the game world. While the player expands their in-game territory, other computer controlled rivals are also expanding and strengthening their countries. As the player progresses through the game, they have access to lodge activities and troops which allow them to invade and ultimately to defeat the a.i. . Anno 1404 features an updated interface, bigger islands and worlds to explore, a sandbox mode, the introduction of a second civilization to grow and nurture and other features new to the Anno series.
