In adventure mode you're on an open map instead with lots of towns, cities and villages. These settlements have different resources according to where in the world they are and how rich they are. The point is to be able to fly your airship, with the help of your crew, to one of these settlements, buy a resource and then fly to another settlement where it's worth a lot more. However, you'll be threatened by both an AI director that spawns bi-planes and other players who might have picked up piracy. You can hire other players as an escort, though.

As far as how the gameplay will look, it'll look like Guns of Icarus Online looks right now. Which is like this

Spoiler:

This expansion comes out next summer at the earliest, though, so you'll probably want something else to keep you busy till then.

That...Is what I was looking for. Thanks!

Glad I could help. Too bad it's some ways off.

Personally, I'm hoping smuggling is possible. then I'll get the fastest ship, probably still the Squid, and do that. Go all Han Solo up in everybody's business.

Singleplayer game, graphics are anime-style-ish but they don't require much of a PC to run. You basically run a store, do dungeons for items and try to pay of your debt each week with a whole story added into the mix.

Capitalism ho!

Currently 60% off as well, so 6 euro's or equivalents, worth a looker at least.

A summary of the game:

Yeah.

"Your father died. You're in debt now, time to start your child labor business." That's basically the storyline behind Reccetear if you think about it.

Besides selling chocolate and pissing off old men by not bending to their whim of lowering it past the stock price. Silly consumer.

Another one I enjoy is the Patrician Series, though not 1700's it's an excellent trade game. There's also the Guild II, which is comparable to a renaissance Sims with economy and trade in it.

There's also, quite possibly one of the best games ever made, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. Although the mercantilism in that is pretty much "amass all of your money, press button, wait 20 turns (you're probably gonna get killed in that time), ??? PROFIT!"
