HookedGamers writes: "Based on the popular trading simulation franchise started by Ascaron Entertainment in 1992, Patrician IV is now being developed by Gaming Minds Studios and Kalypso Media. As in the earlier games in the series, the player takes on the role of a trader in Northern Europe during the late Middle Ages. As a trader, you will buy and sell goods, form trading routes, battle pirates, and more. There is a surprising amount of depth to Patrician IV, and plenty of things to do, as you climb the ranks of the Hanseatic League to reach financial and political dominance."
