This game is a genuine classic, and well worth the hours spent playing. From trading, industrializing towns with your own industries, to capturing bigger ships and outfitting them for Privateering or protecting your trade lanes, this is a great and fulfilling title. Its recommended for someone who prefers to think and likes a challange. Learning curve is roughly 8hours solid, but once you soon pick up the way to make a profit, it becomes really entertaining. Its well balanced economics adds to the challange and progression is steady. If the title becomes available again here at Mighty Ape – Don't miss the opportunity to buy a copy of this Great Game
