Game Description
The year is 1404, and King George is in trouble. The kingdom is floundering, and he needs more supplies and money to keep it flourishing. As his son, William, you have been sent to the south to explore and develop undiscovered islands! Start by building a fisherman's hut to provide food for your people. Grow your town by constructing houses and other buildings.

Eventually, you'll construct a shipyard to explore even further, and may even encounter some indigenous peoples that'll teach you new technologies!
