In 1998 TopWare Interactive released Knights and Merchants; a medieval based real time strategy game, that had that hint of The Settlers as you manage a village and lead soldiers to victory. It was a great game for it's time and today's big news is the unofficial fan-made remake mod for the game Knights and Merchants which has a big r6720 release. What was once a demo remake is now a fully-fledged overhauled game which no longer needs “Demo” in the title. In order to play the KaM Remake you are required to have Knights and Merchants: The Peasants Rebellion installed
