Description

The Patrician is set in medieval times, and focuses on the trading efforts of the Hanseatic League. You (and up to 3 other players) struggle for money and respectability. You should build up sea routes between the 16 cities in the North and East Sea. You aim is to be governor of your hometown. For this you need much money and a high respectability. The game ends, when you win the elect to the Ältermann,– the highest rank in this century.

You earn money by buying goods cheap and sell them for higher price. With the first profits you can buy new ships (out of 4 different types) or stores.

Humourous but not necessary are battles against pirates. For these, you can buy weapons for your ships and go with ships from other traders to hunt the pirates.
