Legendo Entertainment has today launched Fortune Winds: Ancient Trader, a turn-based strategy videogame that takes its inspiration from nautical folklore and legend, for PC format. Following the Mac release of Fortune Winds: Ancient Trader in May, the PC edition is now available to download via Origin and Gamersgate.
In Fortune Winds: Ancient Trader, Legendo tries to take the exploration and adventure of seafaring games and distill it into small concentrated doses. The team did a fairly good job, but probably distilled it a bit too much.
Fortune Winds: Ancient Trader is a great little strategy title that is aimed most at the casual player. While the AI players do a decent job the game is definitely most fun against real human opponents and it would have been nice to see an online multiplayer component. However for less than £10 fans of the genre will find hours of enjoyment here.
