If you like casual games, and peaceful relaxong gameplay, Port Royale 3 is for you

Nov. 2025

I loved this game instead of Royale 4. Although its a classic but its quite enjoyable

July 2025

A bit of an older game, but I enjoy it for both being a game you can create routes and passively make money without much thought, and simply let the game run until your economy collapses at some point, or try to micromanage things to your heart's content. If you want to focus on naval battles, you can do so. If you want to focus on trading, you can do that. If you want to take over every city and town in the game, you can. If you want to be friends of all the nations, or a devoted enemy of one or all of them, it's all up to you. I also much, much prefer this game over Port Royale 4's turn based naval combat, which seems like an inexplicable change and vast downgrade from the naval combat in this game.

An awesome nation building game during the age of pirates. Played for many hours.

Feb. 2025

Not bad but feels like a down grade from Port Royale 2 for trading and fleet features. It's still fun and a bit easier to play in some regards.
