The first release, for Windows and Linux.

• Two beginnings, Low Water and The Third Warning; Easy, Normal and Hard.
• One to four players at one computer, or none (watch the computer play).
• The river and its seasons, tasks, tales and goodwill, the dikes and the Great Flood, five officials, three ways to win.
• The hex battle with boats, the current, reeds, fire and bribes.
• Ten save slots, three autosaves, export and import; battles can be saved halfway.
• Four pieces of music.

Known: the computer bands are not balanced yet. In Low Water one band wins far more often than the others when the computer plays them all.
