Patrician IV

The historical trade simulation and strategy series continue with Patrician IV. When the Hanseatic League thrived in the late Middle Ages, you were a merchant in northern Europe. Your objective is to become Hanse's most successful and influential member and ultimately be chosen as the league's Elderman. You begin bartering with essential items, expand your manufacturing, and construct a merchant fleet. Later on, you'll find other towns and acquire an increasing amount of political influence.

A Hanse merchant's life can, however, also be complicated. On the path to power, you must defend your position against aggressive opponents, who you must battle through price wars, economic competition, or immoral measures like sabotage. Even so, are you going to pirate?

Key features include:

• Rise through the ranks to become a powerful merchant, and use your growing notoriety and fortune to transform towns under your control from humble villages to majestic capitals.
• This comprehensive strategic simulation balances conflicting interests, trading routes, political unrest, disease, weather, piracy, and greedy royalty.
• Create an empire by building structures and employing labourers to increase demand for primary and exotic items.
