Explore the Caribbean sea and towns in the predecessor to the best open-ended buccaneer game of all time! In this one your goal is to become the Governor.
You can choose between 4 different character nationalities from English, French, Dutch or Spanish. Along the way you decide your character's career path, and live an adventurer's life, where you will follow all assigned missions and tasks. You will be able to buy maps to hidden treasures, find secret pirate hovels, trade between all 60 available cities, build up your own business or become a pirate! And whatever you choose sooner or later you will participate in beautiful sea battles.
Port Royale places the player within real historic locations. You are given the option to choose between 4 different times in history – 1570, 1600, 1630 or 1660. Each of these timelines has direct influence over the game play. You will witness wars, disasters and much more in this rich and dangerous world. So be prepared for everything and ready your cutlass and pistol – the adventure awaits!
Become a landowner, merchant, pirate or adventurer
Command entire fleets and participate in both skirmishes and epic sea battles
Live the life of a freelancer or pledge yourself to one of the world powers fighting for dominance over the Caribbean Sea
Already had PR2 and saw this one on sale too so picked it up. Curious to see the difference, I can report that is is also very cool. Allows you to trade away in the colonies as one of the civilised nations and build riches and influence for the glory and honour of Empire! Great fun.
I've played Port Royale 3 for a while but wanted to try out the original. It does not disappoint. i guess you'd call it 'good bones'. I see why this is everyone's favorite.
The game is quite gripping when played for the first time. I myself have spent, what must have been, around 6 hours on the first day I launched it. It seems I just liked the concept of travelling through the seas and doing business in the Caribbean.
But the longer one plays this game, the more shortcomings, goofs and boredom shows through. Just like Jolly Roger appearing on the horizon out of nowhere...
It it generally fun to travel the sea and build businesses in this game - trying to find the most lucrative deals in the Caribbean to gather wealth. But this is where the fun ends...
One problem are the missions in the game. There are few of them, they are boring and extremely repetitive. In some cases, governors will stubbornly offer exact same missions over a course of several months. Moreover, many missions are complex, one-time only and available only during several first months of the gameplay. At the very time where players generally lack the resources or money to get these missions accomplished. In other words, players have only two options - either decline the mission and never have it offered again or accept it and fail miserably.
Crashes in the game, which have been mentioned by other reviewers, are a fact. For some weird reason, it's always the German developers whose source codes are a mess. If you played Tropico 1 or Tropico 4, you'll understand what i mean... Crashes can happen anytime. Even during such mundane actions as selecting Inn or a Governor's Palace. Fortunately, the game has an autosave function which can minimize gameplay losses from frequent CTDs.
One of the biggest let-downs is also the story ending, which is very anticlimactic and, to be honest, hugely disrespectful towards the player. It is presented in the form of a note in the player's logbook... A NOTE. IN THE PLAYER'S LOGBOOK. Not even a cutscene of any sort. Just a notepad memo...
Overall, a game good for sick leave or prison term. Hardly exciting after the first playthrough.
i was looking out for Patrizier, DIe Gilde, Fugger, Die Hanse etc...found this one too...just checked it out...truely i'm more into those other games & i think patrizier 3 is a bit better (graphics, gameplay etc) ...but still it's a good alternative...
it's a nice add-on for my 2 lil i4770/i4790 4gb gpu 8/16gb ram win10 pc's; on them i play older pc (90's - early2010's)/dos/amiga-emu games...still looking out for older cheap games on sale...
