What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This game is born out of my passion for creating worlds, engaging gameplay mechanics, and economic systems. I want to share it with the community as early as possible to refine every detail together. Since I’m developing it solo, your feedback during Early Access will be invaluable in polishing the gameplay and fixing any issues.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The duration of Early Access will depend on the number of changes that both I and the players deem worthwhile. Tentatively, I plan to leave Early Access in mid-2025.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add more scenarios and a campaign in the full version, along with improvements based on feedback and experiences from Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes 4 scenarios, offering an average of 12 hours of gameplay.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price may gradually increase as new content is added and the game evolves.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Absolutely! Since this is my first project of this kind, I deeply value player feedback, opinions, and suggestions. As a passionate gamer and role-playing enthusiast, I know that great games are built through collaboration between developers and the community.

I’d love to hear your thoughts—share your feedback on the Steam forums or reach out directly via email. ”

About This Game

Experience Fantasy Trader, a passion project crafted over three years by a dedicated indie developer. The game is still in production, so the final product may feature a different UI layout, graphics, and game elements than those currently shown in screenshots.

Guide your trading post to riches and fame in a dynamic fantasy world. Build relationships with visiting heroes and address their unique needs and challenges. Defend what’s yours from monsters, thieves, and tax collectors.

As the owner of a trading post, you can pursue many paths toward wealth, fame, bankruptcy, or even death:

  • Develop and leverage 17 different skills, including trade connections, negotiation, leadership, architectural vision, and more. Construct and upgrade over 30 distinct structures to expand your post.

  • Forge your own trading style by sourcing over 300 types of goods from local markets and stocking them in your stores. Capitalize on price fluctuations and a dynamic event system that impacts prices through factors like new taxes, guild and royal politics, wars, and monster invasions.

  • Engage in negotiations with visitors and clients. Want to keep a customer’s interest? Offer them a job? Or perhaps you’d rather share a drink, play a game of dice, or simply chat?

  • Are the local markets lacking interesting goods, or are prices just too high? Try crafting your own products from semi-finished goods—or take your chances on the black market.

  • Consider hiring mercenaries: save on wages by making vague promises, or build a loyal, well-paid team of soldiers. You could even consider overthrowing the king—after all, who enjoys paying taxes? But be prepared for the consequences…

Will you be an honest merchant or a profit-at-all-costs dealer? Earn a reputation as a trustworthy trader or become known for shady, underhanded dealings. Build the most beautiful trading post in the kingdom, or a fortified fortress adorned with war trophies to deter intruders.

Immerse yourself in the world of Fantasy Trader and discover your path.
