Over dit spel

A narrative-heavy single player strategy about the richest man in history.

Build trade routes and finance voyages

To deliver goods, you need to set up trade routes. Different routes have different delivery times and different dangers. Hire carriage guards or bribe brigands. Choice is yours.

Run mines and invest in businesses

Invest in real mines and real companies of the 14th and 15th centuries. Many of them still exist today!

Lend money to kings

Financing kings in the Renaissance period was not just OK; it was considered highly prestigious. Finance famous lineages, but don't forget to choose sufficient collateral, like access to a state treasury.

Dump prices to ruin your competitors.

Become the only supplier of metals and weapons.

Finance wars

Once you hold the entire copper supply, anyone who wants to start a war has to trade with you!

Based on real events

The game is as historically accurate as it can be. React to events to earn money or prestige. But beware! Your actions have unexpected consequences... buying a mine may lead to a cave-in, or a miner revolt, or finding a rich gold vein.

Jakob Fugger was the richest person in history. He owned mines, smelters, organized trade routes, invested in voyages, spice imports from India, but he also invested in wars, bribed monarchs, and financed elections of kings. In the game, time is passing and events appear as they really happened. The player has various choices for how to react to them. Players can invest even in opportunities in which Fugger didn't. How much money would you earn?
