Players will fight, manage, and rule nations from Europe to the Far East with eight nationalities to chose from: British, Dutch, French, Danish, Portuguese, Swedish, Spanish, and the Holy Roman Empire.

I knew more why I had to play only a few minutes ago, now I remember now. After re-installing it is bugger, back on Windows, a nice scam.

I wish I could give a representative assessment of this game. However, go to know why, I can not exceed the stage of the game menu, because as soon as I run some, this one makes me a very nice back Windows with game crashing...

Good Idea with little Depth of Play, Who liked to play the Game "Ruler of the Seas" From 1997, find the right Remake here. However, the Developers apparently decided not to add any new Content to the Game, but to leave it at the same Time excellent Scope. 12 Years after the Release of the Original, it would surely have been possible to generate a little more Depth of Play.
So it remains with the following Operations, which are repeated for several Hours and thus lead to Success:-Build Merchant ships-create Fleet-Equip fleet with automatic Trade route-build Warships-take ports-expand ports conclusion: The Remake Unfortunately, the original cannot trump the Original. Graphics alone do not. Nevertheless, there is a Buy recommendation from me due to the Price of 10 Euros-that is always worth it.

Blos Hands off this Game ...
The DLCs have not worked since September 2016, so who buys doesn't get the DLC Content.
Of Course, neither Nitro nor Steam reacted here in any negative Way.
So far, there has been no Answer at all from nitro and Steam continues to pursue the Motto of "Take Care of Your Scrap" we only convey.
Hello, you have a huge Kick for that!!!! Customer service means something Different.
The Game Content itself is based on a game released in 1997 and has not been adapted in content, only the Graphics have been slightly spiced up. Here is the Emphasis on "something."
Easy Daddling is ok, but we're now living in 2017. And so it should be a matter of course that if you want to take coal, you have to do something about it as well.
Due to the Above situation, of course, I could only test the Game in the Basic Version.
Too bad for the very good Idea, but real, I prefer to play the Patrician in Primordial Form.
Yes, the Game is reminiscent of Patrician and Port Royale with a little more Fighting Options.
Sorry but with Concentrated ineptitude, reinforced by the well-known "Non-reacting" Of Steam, there simply can be no good Rating.
Personally, I would have liked something Better here.
