About

The Caribbean, in the turbulent 17th Century. The mighty kingdoms of Spain, England, France and the Netherlands fight over the colonies. And there you are, a young sea captain whose only goal is to become the most powerful man in the New World. To achieve that goal, you may choose one of the two available campaigns: will you become an Adventurer or a Trader?
If you chose the way of the Adventurer, lead an unforgiving campaign for the conquest of the seas: invasion, piracy, bounty hunting, raiding; do whatever it takes to build your own empire in the Caribbean. And of course, trade will have a less important role to play in your rise.
The way of the Trader is, on the opposite, mostly about developing your riches and your economic power. To be the most powerful Trader of the New World, you have to create trade routes, build industries and develop the economy of the colonies.
Of course, in Free Play mode, you can mix both of those in any way you want, letting you create your own unique and exciting story.
For the first time in the acclaimed Port Royale series, you are not alone in the beautiful and seemingly so peaceful seas of the Caribbean. The Multiplayer mode allows up to 4 players to play through LAN or over the Internet. Develop a successful trading company, lead your ships in beautiful 3D naval battles and force your opponents to their knees!Key Features:Two different single player campaigns: Adventurer and Trader
Naval battles, raids, plundering and invasions await the Adventurer, while the Trader will develop trade routes and the economy to earn glory, fortune and power
16 different ship types, such as powerful Galleons or versatile Frigates
Organize trade with 60 different cities such as Port-au-Prince or Tortuga
A competitive Multiplayer mode for up to 4 players
A comprehensive trade system, with supply and demand dynamically setting the price of goods and wares, like in the real world

Port Royale 3 reviews and comments

All that! I've enjoyed playing Role-playing Games for a long time, but preferably Economic Simulations (which unfortunately don't exist so often!). I also liked To play Patrician 2, 3, 4. This one is exactly the same with changed (not improved!) Graphic, otherwise, pretty much everything is the same. So, I would also like to thank my Patrician and I prefer to continue playing my Patrician. It is a great pity. If anyone knows a crisp Economic Simulation, let them let me know. Greeting, Multima

I had No chance to play with the previous Port Royal, this is the first I purchase and the truth?, I have not stopped playing since I bought it, it is a vice to see what the Caribbean islands need and how I can get them. Nothing more with the 10 hours I've dedicated and paid only and more to the offer price of the entire package. If you are a fan of this game, maybe you can compare with previous and analyze their ailments, as I'm new in this title I do not see but surely exist, as has been commented. Other titles have lasted from 5 to 9 hours and I paid double or triple, I really liked Port Royale 3

As a regular player of Port Royale 2 in his day, game that by the way I loved, I have to say that Port Royale 3 has not fulfilled the expectations that I had put in it. Since I started the game, I noticed that something didn't fit. It Is quite similar to the second installment, only that does not get to hook you at all, coupled with the interface that does not help too much when it comes to having clear where your convoys are, your information, and how to get to everything you need in an efficient way. The gameplay is somewhat more tedious than in 2, is not enjoyed as much when it comes to trading or getting benefits. The graphics are improved and the naval battles now allow you to control more than one boat at a time, but otherwise I will stay with the 2. I Don't think the 3 deserves your purchase. I have tried and I have not come to convince at all.

good and well I took a few hours and I did not waste my time, I had already played but I had not forgotten! graphic level c is very pleasant, it is not a Visual slap of course, but it remains beautiful, neat and detailed. the trading system works perfectly as well as the automatic road system unlike a rise of Venice, its big brother.... in the final Royal port 3 becomes the reference before patrician 4, rise of Venice and all the other brothers of kalypso. the atmosphere of the game is suympas, the Caraibe, CA made rever, Tresor de pirate, sea and Sun! good no sex on the other hand. the goal is simple, starting from a ship in Royal port, and it has to increase its fleet, become rich and make more and more Exchange to become the master. good you have to love the genre, otherwise you will be bored, but there is good in this game. neanmois some bug parfois.il is fine, but still the impression that it is not finished....
