## What is Ottoman Merchant?

It is the 1480s and you are a young merchant in the Ottoman lands. Build your first caravan in Bursa and grow a trading house along the roads to Aleppo, Cairo, Belgrade and Venice. The army does the conquering; you get rich through trade, risk and skill.

EVERY JOURNEY IS A MATCH
Each journey ends with a Journey Score from 0 to 100. Your score sets your profit and reputation, and reputation carries you from Peddler to Merchant, to Trader, and finally to Palace Supplier.

BUY LOW, SELL HIGH
Silk, spice, cloth, sugar, copper and more. Every city has its own market and its own prices. Seasons turn and prices move.

LISTEN AT THE INN
What the innkeepers tell you may be true or a lie. Which rumor you trust changes the fate of the journey.

DECIDE ON THE ROAD
Mountain pass or caravan road? Wait your turn at the crowded well, or pay your way? Your guard, camel driver and interpreter each help in their own way.

SKILL-BASED MINI-GAMES
• Haggling: face the vendor and tap while the needle is in the gold.
• Bandit raid: slash with your finger to protect the caravan.
• Archery: draw the bow, hold your breath, aim against the wind.
• Camel wrestling: gather strength and let go at the golden moment.

GROW YOUR CARAVAN
Buy camels, guards and a scribe; buy shops and inns and collect rent. Support the army, and the bazaars of conquered cities open to you.
