"Merchant's Rush" is a weird Unreal asset flip, although in fairness at least some effort went into making some kind of game, although probably more effort was spent browsing the Unreal Marketplace for assets to use rather than polish and bug fixing. What do you do in the game? This buggy train wreck of an asset flip is an attempt to make some kind of "merchant" business simulator/tycoon game, and most of the game is your usual "could have been a spreadsheet or a web page" economic/business simulation menu clicking. There's a little bit of a strategy component as you can have little battles with the Unreal assets the developer is trying to pass off as his own, if your caravan gets attack, but you might not get far enough to experience that because of just how bug ridden this dumpster fire is. At least the developer didn't have the audacity to try charge money for this. The game graphics look better than you might expect, but that's just because it looks like some or all of them are "borrowed" from asset stores or wherever. Gamers can tell... and it comes across as insincere. There's also the old adage that those who lack the budget and talent to make their own game assets us…

Crashed when i died and tried to go back to main menu. Not a bad game needs a lot of polish. For a free game totally recommend it. don't have enough play time to comment about all the systems tho.
