Merchant Empire

O

Game Objective Make as many gold coins as you can by buying and selling goods before time runs out. User Controls To move ship: WASD / Arrow keys. To navigate menus: Mouse + Left mouse button --- Background In the 18th century, the South China Sea bustled with activity as maritime trade flourished between Europe and the Far East. Merchants ships carried luxury goods such as tea, silk and porcelain from Asia to the West. In return, the Asian goods were exchanged for silver, medicine and all manner of Western contraptions such as clocks, watches and cartography instruments. Alas, such endeavors were not without considerable risk. Following the shipwrecking of their mother vessel, your crew must start anew in the distant lands of the Orient. Undeterred and no less determined, your crew has mustered what little gold they could to purchase a small ship in one last attempt to recoup their losses. After all, fortune favors the bold in the age of merchant empires. Credits OpenGameArt.org for contributing artwork and reference sprites.
