I can't really say if the game is good since I can't play it from getting terrible motion sickness. There is no way of fixing the prb in settings either so this is just a warning if you have problem with motion sickness in games this is probably not the game for you.
This is an old favorit that I played for countless hours when it was released a very long time ago. I still have the original box kept among my valuable memories. The game to my surprise is still very enjoyable. It's an economy simulator with some role playing features and lots of variation to what you can do. I'm quite impressed by how much efforts have been put in to small subtle details, something I didn't notice or appreciated enough when I played it many years ago. The UI is intuitive and the game has a good balance between micro- and macro- management. I set the speed to slow or very slow and just enjoy watching my trade empire grow over time. The graphics still works pretty well and the background music and sound as well. The resolution tough is sadly -to my knowledge- not adapted for newer/wider screens. I would love to see a remake of this game. Just don't change what already works because the basic game is excellent! There are newer and better looking games for sure but remove the shiny stuff and Patrician 3 will still be the superior one.
