Knights and Merchants is a singleplayer and multiplayer top-down view building and strategy game.
After the original version of the game (subtitled The Shattered Kingdom) was released in autumn 1998, an expanded release followed in November 2001, subtitled The Peasants Rebellion. This expanded version would contain all content of the original as well as new campaign missions, soundtrack, and a skirmish mode. As a result, The Peasants Rebellion would be the default release of the game on digital stores. An "HD" executable was added exclusively to the Steam release as an alternative option, which included high resolution support, but it removed skirmish and multiplayer modes.
Since the 2010s, the community largely migrated to playing the KaM Remake mod instead of any default release of the game, as it includes proper widescreen support without the removal of features, its own multiplayer infrastructure, bug fixes and other quality-of-life changes.
