Colonisator
SteamLead your more or less virtuous shipping company on the path to wealth and glory, in this turn-based adventure set in the golden age of piracy !
The royal city of Sundercity charges you with colonizing and administering islands in its name... but you are not alone! Up to 3 AI competitors and factions more or less happy to see you will be there to make your life difficult.
Complete your mission by building a reputation over time, and demonstrate your skill to thwart the many dangerous situations that await you!
You decide the movement of your ship and manage the different situations that arise. Explore, colonize, fight, trade, stopover to resupply.
As the game progresses, you will have to make difficult decisions, which will have irremediable consequences! So you have to deal with your officers, the crew, but you also have to make sure that your islands thrive.
Stay away from pirates and be ready to make any compromises to achieve your goals!
Resources are all produced somewhere and do not magically teleport!
Make sure your ship and your islands lack nothing, where trouble will quickly fall upon you. If your company is in difficulty, Sundercity will not do you any favors!
All characters in the game are simulated. They all have their own characteristics and aspirations. Your actions and those of important characters will influence their decisions.
You'll get the crew you deserve!
