The Settlers III: Quest of the Amazons is a city-building game with real-time strategy elements belonging to The Settlers series developed by Blue Byte. The player is expected to construct and administer a settlement and expand its territory to defeat rival settlements and/or gain control of the map (or a predetermined part of it). It is the second expansion pack to The Settlers III. The plot is set 200 years before the events of the original game. After the tragic death of Phaethon, son of Helios, the latter finds out that he had a daughter with Medusa: Q’nqüra. The little girls wishes to be introduced to Helios’ boss, namely the Unknown God and immediately becomes his favourite. Years later he makes her the goddess of the Amazons who are to challenge other peoples ruled by male gods. The expansion pack offers the player two additional campaigns: in the first one the player may choose the Amazons and fight with other nations (Romans, Asians, and Egyptians), while in the other the player administers a coalition of the latter three nations to defeat the Amazons. Each campaign consists of 12 missions.
