Resumen
Patrician IV es la secuela de la serie de estrategia y simulación de comercio histórico. Eres un mercader en el norte de Europa a finales de la Edad Media, cuando florecía la Liga Hanseática. Tu objetivo es convertirte en el miembro más exitoso e influyente de la Liga Hanseática y, en última instancia, ser elegido Elderman, líder de la liga comercial. Empiezas negociando con bienes comunes, construyes tu propia producción y estableces una flota mercante. Más adelante, ganarás cada vez más influencia política e incluso fundarás nuevas ciudades.
Sin embargo, la vida de un mercader Hanse también puede tener sus lados oscuros. En tu camino hacia el poder tendrás que mantenerte firme frente a feroces rivales, a los que deberás combatir con la competencia económica, la guerra de precios o medios impuros como el sabotaje. ¿Te dedicarás incluso a la piratería?

Developing citiesPatrician IV is a great game in terms of a market simulator. You start out with a ship and slowly build your trade empire. Developing cities as you establish more trade with each. The real challenge comes when trying to control the entire region with the ever grown terror of pirates. Overall if you need an economics challenge then you'll get some few days of game play out of this title, if that's not what you're into avoid it.

The fact that a large map of the north of Europe tends to be the screen you are on a majority of the time means that much of the impressive detail is lost. The gameplay itself often forcing you to click through different screens to accomplish simple selections, making what could be a simple and enjoyable game much more taxing to play. The main gameplay mechanic of trading goods to earn a profit (with the option of making them) sounds interesting in concept, but quickly becomes a continual grind. The overcomplicated development of "trade routes" to have ships automatically trade is rife with problems and only serves to have the game play itself (with the actual player only creating the occasional ship or claiming the occasional port). This game is probably best for those who are looking for an easy spreadsheet-style game.

The biggest problem with this game is the lack of a tutorial; However, if you mash the buttons and find out what does what, and read off of the patrician IV forums you will learn how the game works. I know that is a lot of extra work there but you can have a lot of fun playing this game as well.
A game dedicated to pure strategy fans. There's a lack of options and multiplayer modes though, and some more polish could've done good to the whole experience.
In every game, I reach a point where I start to wonder why I am still playing. I literally have more money than I know what to do with. With a successfully, healthy business, it certainly feels like the main goal has been achieved. But ultimately, Patrician is less about money than it is about the convergence of wealth, power, and influence.
