Epic new trading MMORPG setting sail soon on the Game321.com online games portal
Leading online games publisher, NGames, is today thrilled to reveal Grand Voyage – a brand new historical trading web MMORPG set in the European age of sail and discovery.
Grand Voyage takes players back to the late-Renaissance 16th century, when the Mediterranean, North Sea, and the Baltic coast were primed to become well developed maritime transport and trade ports. A lesson in history and trading as well as an action-packed game, Grand Voyage familiarizes players with the distinctive cities and foreign customs of the times – and provides plenty of opportunities for exciting sea battles!
From anonymous small time captains to legendary voyagers, players work their way up the ranks to become captains of their own fleets, earning silver and prestige as they sail from port to port trading high demand goods for massive profits.
Grand Voyage stays true to 16th century regional trading, bringing key cities to life with gorgeous graphics, faithful building styles and city features, and ports that produce goods with unique geographical characteristics.
A fast ticking stock-style trading system means gameplay changes and evolves dynamically based on player actions. Prices of all goods are dictated by trading activities – if everybody buys the same goods, the price of those goods will soar. Grand Voyage’s trade prices are updated every 30 seconds, making intricate planning and exceptional timing an essential part of successful buy-low, sell-high trading.
Keeping ships in top working condition and sailing as part of a team is important when trading; it only takes a jealous captain with a more advanced ship to ruin a perfect route. Sea action dives straight into epic waters with cross server battles instantly available, allowing players to fight shoulder-to-shoulder with, or against, players from other servers. Grand Voyage’s most legendary figures of the sea will be highlighted across all servers for others to admire.
Advanced rich social systems make communication a cornerstone of the Grand Voyage experience. From making friends to taunting opponents; talking to society members to forming powerful alliances; rewards are vast for captains capable of using strategy socially as well as in battle.
