- Worth noticing
- Browser saves use the standard FreeCol .fsg format, allowing games to move between the browser version and desktop FreeCol.
Field notes
The page says browser saves remain on the site, so clearing site data or switching computers can leave them behind; it recommends exporting a save file to keep a game safe. It specifies current desktop Chrome or Firefox with WebAssembly GC and says the project is not made for phones. The project describes itself as an unofficial fan effort under the GPL, separate from the FreeCol team and the rights holders of Colonization.
