[PC, Xbox360] Ancient Trader, Un boardgame sfizioso! Opzioni

[inskin]

Volevo suggerirvi di provare la demo di Ancient Trader, uno strategico a turni con tutto il fascino dei giochi da tavolo, tecnicamente sfizioso, semplice ma ben strutturato nelle meccaniche e dotato di un editor e di multiplayer online per potenziarne la longevità.
Io l'ho stanato fra gli indie games della Xbox360 ma poi ho scoperto con piacere che c'è anche su PC.

Questa la descrizione:

Ancient trader is a quick, pick-up-and-play arcade strategy game for the whole family in the style of digital distribution titles like Carcassonne and Catan.

You sail your ship through uncharted seas to discover new islands and ports offering goods for trade as well as various equipment and quests. Sailing from island to island, you gather riches and upgrade your ship from a fragile skiff into a formidable galleon, capable of taking on mythical sea monsters lurking in the surrounding oceans. Once strong enough, you can aspire to obtain three ancient artifacts that lead to the legendary treasure and challenge its mythical guardian.

Simple and easily accessible strategy game for open target groups on XBLA and PC.
Well balanced gameplay with exploration, trade, and combat always provides interesting options and a variety of choices to pursue.
Multiplayer mode for up to 4 players to play local and online games on X360 and PC.
Including a set of game maps and an intelligent map generator which provides an endless variety of scenarios.
Unique art style in beautifully detailed hand drawn lines, capturing the spirit of old maps and medieval sea monsters.

Come dicevo tecnicamente per essere un indie si presenta eccezionalmente bene, con grafica completamente disegnata a mano stile antiche carte nautiche:




Che dire? Se vi capita provatelo!
