Become a medieval merchant and master the arts of bartering, haggling, and investing, Explore 20 markets, barter with 200 characters, and trade in over 1,800 items in a dynamic bartering and haggling system that will challenge and reward.
At the core of this game is a dynamic bartering and haggling system that challenges and rewards players. Unlike traditional trading games, the value of goods fluctuates based on the needs and preferences of individual NPCs. Players must carefully observe the market, learn the preferences of different characters, and negotiate skillfully to secure the best deals. The lack of fixed item values encourages active engagement, as players gradually build their understanding of the complex economic relationships between characters and regions.
The game features a wide range of markets and characters, each with their own specialized needs and trading behaviors. From farmers and craftsmen to nobles and soldiers, each NPC class values certain goods over others, providing players with ample opportunities to identify arbitrage opportunities and maximize their profits. Exploring the unique dynamics of 20 locations encourages a sense of discovery as players uncover new trading strategies and opportunities.
The game's open-ended progression system allows players to build wealth and become a powerful merchant. Starting with a modest inventory, players must carefully manage their resources, make strategic investments, and capitalize on market opportunities to gradually grow their trading empire. The sense of accomplishment in amassing a vast fortune and becoming the "King of Coin" is a powerful draw, with multiple paths to wealth creation that test the player's strategic and economic acumen.
While trading is the core focus, the game's rich world and diverse cast of characters provide ample opportunities for emergent narratives and roleplaying. As players interact with NPCs, they form their own impressions and stories about the lives and motivations of these characters, fostering a sense of personal investment and investment. The organic storytelling, coupled with social interactions like Myth card tournaments, allows players to immerse themselves in the world and shape their own unique experiences.
