The Italian version of the game is considered a rarity, even though it had full Italian translation, from the text to the dub. That's because the distribution company has gone bankrupt. This game is already on GOG, but it would be really neat to have the Italian version on it too.
I love this game. I used to play it with my father as a child. Now i play it alone but it is not the same. I'd love to hear of more people who love this game and who find it in modern days as a new game.
I play this game sience my childhood with my brother and a friend. This game leant us how business can improve the life around people, and today we both choose to be an entrepreneur.
Have the original game disk to this day, brought me many hours of enjoyment learning the mechanics of the game and expanding my little merchant empire over the year.
This is the game I spent most hours in my childhood playing, not even knwoing what I was doing. Now I pikced it up as an adult and boy it felt wonderful. It would be awesome to have it updated and restored.
It was the game of my childhood. I played it in w Windows 95 machine in the nearly 2000s. My father gifted to me when I was six years old. It has a very special place in my heart :). Nowadays, I'm still playing it nevertheless it is very difficult because it has to be very mooded to work properly.
Patrician 3 is a game where you feel the love the developers poured into it. The church bell rings according to your realtime. The music flows depending on ingame context. You can micromanage the hansa to success, or just automate, fast foward and watch your money grow. Starting with trading, getting into production and then going on expeditions - the game has a lot to offer, even to different playstyles. You can hunt pirates or even turn pirate yourself and attack the hansa. Maybe even found your own city. Become the Alderman. Using all these mechanics - how big can you grow the hansa?! I play this game solo and still play it today.
This game teaches how a management and economics game should be, from its production chains to its complex logistics management. An old-fashioned game with soul.
Beautiful isometric graphics. an unforgettable ambience, the music! The fun with selling stuff and building up your towns! It was really great to learn the game and master it and then seeing positive results!
The Granstream SagaThe Granstream Saga is an action game with strong RPG elements, and a spiritual successor to Gaia games. The player controls Eon as he explores overworld and dungeon locations, which are presented in overhead-viewed 3D. Battles are one-on-one; whenever an enemy is encountered, the view is zoomed on the combat participants who must fight each other until one of them emerges victorious. Eon can use swords, daggers, or axes against his enemies. He has a variety of attack moves at his disposal, including combos, shield-breaking abilities, etc.; he can also actively guard and cast magic spells. Leveling up, which increases Eon's attributes, occurs at set intervals throughout the game rather than from accumulating experience points.Action

Breath of FireRecognized by Capcom as their first traditional role-playing video game, Breath of Fire would set the precedent for future entries in the series, and features character designs by company head of development Keiji Inafune, as well as music by members of Capcom's in-house sound team Alph Lyla. In 2001, the game was re-released for the Game Boy Advance handheld system with new save features and minor graphical enhancements, with the English version being released in Europe for the first time.
Set in a fantasy world, Breath of Fire follows the journey of a boy named Ryu, one of the last surviving members of an ancient race with the ability to transform into mighty dragons, as he searches the world for his sister. During his quest, Ryu meets other warriors who share his quest, and comes into conflict with the Dark Dragon Clan, a militaristic empire who seeks to take over the world by reviving a mad goddess. The game experienced mostly positive reception upon release, and was followed by a direct sequel, Breath of Fire II, in 1994.Action Fantasy
Breath of Fire: Dragon QuarterBreath of Fire: Dragon Quarter is a radical departure from the previous titles of the Breath of Fire series, and in some ways from standard Japanese-style role-playing games in general. The game is built like a huge dungeon crawler, with no overworld map. The combat is tactical: each character has action points (AP), which can be used to move around the screen during an enemy encounter, and perform a variety of combo attacks. There is no magic in the game, and many of the items found in dungeons are random. All the enemies are visible on screen. Depending on who first initiated a physical contact, the party or the enemies get an extra turn in battles.
The game allows (and even encourages) the player to restart it from the beginning, keeping the items and the party experience. The game also features a special counter - Ryu can use his traditional dragon transformation abilities, but the counter raises with each such transformation, and when the counter reaches 100, the game is over. Raising the D-ratio allows characters to access new areas every time the game is replayed.Fantasy
