About the Game

As the old powers surrounding your Home City look hungrily at controlling the mysterious Silk Road, innovations in harnessing wind and water offer your Culture a chance to connect this wider world of trade partners first. Start a new age of exploration for fair trade, to leave a different legacy than rapacious colonisation.

Race your Adventurers out with silk and lacquer wings, effortlessly riding trade winds or striving against them and packing overland. Earn rewards by expanding your city's shared atlas, whether joining old maps or drawing anew.

Establish trade routes by recruiting Innkeepers along your way, giving future Adventurers rest so they can quickly revisit exotic ports and trade for the silks that give your Home City's edge.

Perhaps you'll even discover the Mythical City and a second home far away. But always remember, there are rival cultures even within your city, and they may not be above a little piracy!

Only the culture that gathers silks fastest can weave a different future.
