Its a very nice game. I playeded as a loong time ago and now i found it again but ill hope the next Patrizier will have more languages like German, Spanish, Russian and and and than its very difficult to play it just on English. I had it on CD and there was it on German so it helps me now to play it but its very strong.
Pls for ya guys Fix this. I love this game and it make so fun to play it but i dont understand all what they mean with Speciall words so yeah.
MFG Meatte ;)
One of best "tycoon" games ever made. You could develop your ships and "your" towns the way you prefer, and expect a high competency for the profits.
Once you are tired of being a merchant you could also try to be a pirate. But your decisions could bring you the public shame.
The gameplay is insanely addictive, every minute you want to ship a convoy of goods, build a new ship or try the random missions and characters that you could get in the tavern, all of them very interesting but maybe not so rewarding.
The graphics and visuals are delicious even nowadays. As 2D never get old, you could apprecciate all the details in the boats, cities and so. Also the UI is pretty well designed and you have all the info you need when you need it.
If you like the idea to trade between historical cities and you like tycoon-kind games you definitely should try this game.
A true masterpiece with tons of hours of fun.
But first!
The manual sucks.
It doesnt really describe hub-trading,
the intricate mechanisms of buying and selling in your ware-house.
It explains nothing.
The most players fall back on piracy, and that is not what this game is about.
It has a deep deep, Hanseatic Simulator it is backbone.
Well researched and graphically smithened to perfection.
The graphics are beatifully excecuted and doesnt feel dated or odd.
Its just fit the genre.
Well, you could say a bit outdated but
compared to Patrican 4 it is 400% better in every way.
Patrician 3 has something extra for every player.
If you want to understand it i suggest you start at the highest setting
and starting from there.
Investing in a warehouse-manager and a 1-2 way Hub-system is
the way to go with this one.
You cant just endlessly rooming from port to port.
use Cogs,Crayers and Hulks.
Producing Salt, and Timber the two most foremost valuable goods
to start with, (although) Salt is valued as number 8 of 19
i would say it is number 4.
Irongoods, Ore , Timber and Salt is a good way to begin.
Without Salt no fish, no fishoil, no meat, so Salt is very valuable for
the production, not so much for the population (8).
Patrician 2 is also very good, but is very unforgiving and cumbersome
because you cant save your traderoutes and you have no warehouse-manager.
My recommendation is of highest order.
If you want to stop looking at the outdated and mundane graphics,
overcome the struggle of bying and selling goods at the right prices,
you can earn your first millions in the first 2-3 years.
Start stockpiling grains, salt,hemp and you are ready for the Alderman
in no time,..
God Speed...play Patrician 3 so much better than 90% on the GOG.com.
Sometimes is wish that every game has to offer.
You still can play if after 20 hours.
And that says a lot.
I played through the tutorials then started the first challenge mission. I couldn't finish it because the game just became too repetitive for me after some hours. Constantly going to the world map, choosing which town your ship sails to, clicking the fast forward, then choosing what to buy/sell. Repeat repeat. Occasionally you'll build some stuff in the town but you have to make lots of money from sales first.
There's better simulation strategy games but I'd say buy it if you're looking for 5-10 hours of some fun.
