Storm Seas

Storm Seas is set in an open 18th-century Caribbean, where you start with a single ship and build a trading empire. You buy goods, sell them in ports where demand is high and weigh the risks of storms, pirates and changing markets on each voyage.

Trade and build a supply chain

Prices change in response to production, consumption, scarcity and trade between ports. You study demand, choose cargo and plan routes to make a profit. You can also buy land in cities, grow crops and produce resources, reducing your dependence on the market.

Prepare for each voyage

You upgrade your ship to increase its cargo capacity and prepare for longer journeys, and hire crew. You manage food, water and rest for yourself and your crew, while changing weather and unexpected events can affect your travels. You discover islands and ports and chart new routes across the Caribbean.

Choose how to face danger

Naval combat is optional: you can avoid threats or engage when you are ready. When confronted by naval dangers, you decide whether to evade or fight. Your trading network can grow from a first cargo run into a self-sufficient enterprise, but you can also lose everything to the sea.
