Overview
Description

The game supports up to eight players in single‑player, multiplayer, or co‑operative modes, and victory is achieved by acquiring all shares of competing companies. Inspired by classics like M.U.L.E., it blends deep economic simulation with cut‑throat market tactics, all under a sci‑fi backdrop.

In a distant future ruled by the oppressive Ministry of Accounts, players become daring Space Traders, buying and selling commodities across the stars. Navigate a universe of taxes, tariffs, and intrigue while building your fortune. Take on bounty missions, arm yourself against the regime, and outwit rival merchants in a blend of shooter action, strategy, and simulation. Every transaction matters as you challenge the bureaucracy and shape your own destiny.
