The Settlers 7: Paths to a Kingdom is a real time strategy game that focuses on economy. Your objective is to direct your people so that your kingdom became a land flowing with milk and honey. This title goes back to the roots of the series, however, a proper measure of attention was given to make the game appealing not only to the veterans of the series.

The Settlers 7 offers large freedom in choosing a path of development of your empire. You can focus on military, trade, or new technologies. However, successes on these fronts are simply results of healthy economy. Only wise management of your lands and subjects can get you means to defeat rivals. Combat is entirely automatic, excluding you from any manual intervention in battles. Thus, victory or defeat is determined solely by strength of your army.
