Merchant’s Venture

A trade and economy game. Found cities, link them with trade routes, and hire merchants who buy where goods are cheap and sell where they’re dear. Feed a city what it needs and watch it grow.

Real worlds traced from real coastlines: Mesopotamia, Egypt, Britain, Japan, China, or the generated Uncharted Lands.
A living economy: supply and demand set every price, production chains turn wheat into flour and bread, and cities want more as they grow.
Camels, wagons and ships find their own way around mountains and seas.
Two views of one world: a 2D map and a 3D view, all generated with no imported art.

Made with Godot 4
