![]() To what extent this really motivates in the long run, we will have to wait and see. This is an interesting task at the beginning. But the other way round you can also do some things wrong. Here you can optimize some things by skilful construction of the cities. On the other hand, other buildings such as a church or pub have a positive effect. Many buildings have positive and negative effects on other buildings.Ī farm cannot function well if there are not enough residential buildings nearby, on the other hand, farms near residential buildings are negative for the well-being of the inhabitants. This makes the city expansion easy to plan. The expansion of the cities takes place on a hex map here. This starts with residential buildings, without which the required amount of workers in the city might not be enough, goes on to pubs, churches, hospitals, and cemetery, and finally to master builders, markets, warehouses, and the shipyard. ![]() In addition to 25 building types for the individual goods, we can and must also construct 15 general city buildings if we want a city to grow to its full potential. Each city belongs to one of the 4 empires and therefore develops differently.Īs a player we start with a hometown, where we can set up our own businesses or buildings for the city. But of course there is a demand for all goods.įrom this demand and the supply of the corresponding goods the cities develop very differently. There are 25 different goods in total, but a city can only produce a maximum of 7 of them. The Caribbean of Port Royale 4 simulates a total of 60 different cities. Advertisements Gameplay – Colonies and Cities There are probably 18 different models planned, but not all of them are available yet. Maybe there will be more ships later, that will have to wait and see. These large ships can be unlocked via a kind of skill tree, but for which we first have to acquire fame. The selection of ships starts with small agile merchant schooners, moves on to the larger merchant ships such as fleets and brigs, and finally to the galleons and war galleons that were not available at the beginning. Or we can place our own building orders, but then we have to wait for a longer time until the building is finished. There we can either buy old models, which are for sale at random and in limited quantities. But since we have to fight with pirates during the game and wars between the colonial powers are breaking out, we’ll need both kinds urgently. And vice versa, warships are brimming with weapons, but then have only a small cargo hold. Merchant ships cannot take cannons at all, but they can take many goods. They vary in speed, loading capacity, draught, number of crew, maneuverability, deck height, durability, and of course the value. In the beginning, there are five different models to choose from, which differ greatly in their values. So with our ships, we are responsible for the trade of goods and the basic supply of the cities. There were almost no land connections between the cities at that time, and if there were, they were very dangerous. The ships are definitely an extremely important factor in Port Royale 4. Perhaps the developers will fix this weakness later, but for now Port Royale 4 is a pure single player experience. I find this to be quite a shortcoming because this kind of game is actually suitable for collaborative action and building or even for competitive war games and conquests. ![]() ![]() Multiplayer is currently not planned for Port Royale. For example, the merchantress can trade everywhere without having to buy a trading concession for each city first, but she has twice the requirements for warships. These characters have slightly different abilities. But also the eras, the targets and goals of the respective viceroys or colony administrators are different.Īt last there is a free game mode, where we join one of the four sea powers and choose one of the currently four given characters. On the one hand, these differ very much in the different starting areas. ![]() I expect that soon there will be one for each of the colonial powers. In addition, there are currently 3 campaigns. But don’t worry, it won’t get too complicated and you can have fun and success in Port Royale even without studying business administration. The game offers some tutorial missions, which simplify the entry into the sometimes quite complex processes. Game Modes – Singleplayer – Campaign – Skirmish ![]()
