Needs more variety

The map art is beautiful. And the city art is beautiful. But except for the fluctuating market prices, every city is pretty much like every other city. Market, tavern, workshop. Nothing unique. Itโ€™s like youโ€™re visiting the same city over and over again.

Love it, but crashing on my 5S...

I love this game but when I added a partner (with a ship) the game started crashing (on a 5S) to the point I can't play it. Totally bummed because it was getting really good! Please fix if possible.

Worth a look

This one is... interesting. It's very much a game you have to learn to play by playing, and failing. And failing some more. And right when you think you've got the hang of it your cart breaks a wheel and an army blocks your path and all that cargo starts to rot and you fail to make a profit again. But... it's actually a fun game. I strongly suggest giving it a look.

Brilliant and charmingly!

I initially held off buying this, but now I'm so glad a took a chance on it. This is the simply the best "trading" game on iPad. Very stable for me, I've encountered no crashes or bugs. Art is beautiful, music is perfect, the detailed setting is intriguing, and the gameplay is entertaining.

I really enjoy the default economy because it forces you to play strategically and to improvise. You can't just brainlessly ferry goods between A and B forever. And there is so much depth, from exploring ruins, to delving into mines, and so many other intriguing options.

In a word, Bravo!

Thank You!

Great update fixing bugs and the big addition of city names on the map, that is a big help. I have not had any problems playing the game and I played for a good two hours today with no crashes. My biggest problem is there are random events that keep lowering my luck and burning candles has no effect. This is a fun and unique trading/merchant game with lots of random quests to do for people in different cities.

Can't even play

App starts and can adjust options but after selecting to start game the app "loads" for several seconds and closes. Playing on iPad mini. Complete waste of time and money!!!

One of the Greatest Mobile Games

This game, is one of the best implemented pieces of software on the mobile platform. It has enough depth and storyline for over 15 hours of gameplay. It has immense replay value. I would recommend this to anyone.

Outstanding trading app

If you're not familiar with games like Patrician or Port Royale, I think you're in for a real treat. Hand drawn graphics, a wonderful soundtrack, and a compelling storyline wrap around entertaining game play. A port from a PC game, it works extremely well here. It takes a bit to get going. You start from nothing, and have to build your wealth through trading and completing side missions. But later in the game it's much easier to continue to build wealth. There's a few hiccups, but nothing major. I highly recommend this game for anyone who finds the idea of being a trader in a game intriguing. Oh, and no in-app purchases, which is a huge plus for me and a big reason why I purchased it.
