Synopsis

As a merchant beginning in the 19th century, the player must buy a ship, find a crew, load some goods on board and set sail towards the horizon, until he reaches a port where these goods are requested. Eventually, he will have the money to buy more ships, create regular trade routes and become the director of a conventional trading company.

1869 focuses on management and economics rather than action. The actual navigation consists of tracing a route, then watching the days pass, interrupted only by occasional random events. Basically, you’ll plan routes, watch out for special missions (which pay off big if they’re completed on time), and generally try to avoid bankruptcy.
