About
Take to the waves in the Age of Sail and chart the vastness of the unknown world—or, you know, just make it up. Captain your ship through perilous waters in search of silks, spices and glory. Manipulate frivolous rulers and take advantage of their patronage to further your interests.
Explore the procedurally generated world via sailship.

Identify terrain you see—are they land, clouds, or icebergs, or something else?

Chart novel routes through the sea to acquire rare goods, then jealously guard these routes from pirates and raiders.

Who you chose to trade with and what you choose to give them shape what they will invent or who they will meet.

History is full of explorers who falsified discoveries to manipulate patrons and receive patronage, why not join their ranks?

Experience the emergent narrative that happens as the result of your choices throughout the game.
