Medieval economy simulator with true markets
Mercantile competition
Mercatorio is an economy simulation game set in medieval times. Players interact through economic competition and cooperation, chasing financial success and, ultimately, prestige.
Production and logistics are core elements in Mercatorio, and will be recognizable to players familiar town-building or economy simulation games, like the games of the Anno and Victoria series, with chains of production buildings and production methods refining raw materials into more valuable finished products, and ships or carts bringing raw materials in or shipping the finished products to their markets.
What sets Mercatorio apart is the mercantile environment with actual market prices, determined exclusively by the supply and demand of the market participants.
In addition, and maybe in contrast to this, Mercatorio strives to simulate the medieval economy as historically accurate as possible, with buildings, products and production methods all modeled after the activities of the era. Put this together and you get a game with a lot of depth and possibilities to explore, offering an interesting and challenging experience.
