This is nonsense, not worth the time it takes to install. If you want space trading, go play Dune Imperium instead.

Игра Space Merchant – это увлекательный экономический симулятор с элементами стратегии, где вам предстоит стать космическим торговцем. Игровой процесс затягивает своей неспешностью и глубиной. Нужно умело балансировать между закупкой товаров по выгодной цене, поиском оптимальных маршрутов и защитой своих кораблей от пиратов. Визуально игра может показаться устаревшей, но продуманный геймплей и широкие возможности для развития собственного торгового флота с лихвой это компенсируют. Разнообразие товаров, планет и фракций добавляет реиграбельности, а фактор случайности в виде неожиданных событий и меняющихся цен держит в напряжении. Не стоит ждать от игры динамичных сражений или захватывающего сюжета. Ее прелесть в другом – в возможности построить собственную торговую империю, просчитывая каждый шаг и принимая взвешенные решения. Если вам нравятся экономические стратегии и вы готовы потратить время на освоение всех тонкостей, то Space Merchant определенно стоит вашего внимания. Игра не для всех, но тех, кто проникнется – не оторваться.

This looks like a mobile game and worse the hand holding introduction is broken soft locking the game. So i would strongly not recommend this game.

So far it appears your crew can't be injured, which I like, Your ship will take the damage instead. I like the game.

There are several parts to this game that are missing. It is not done yet, so after fill the tech tree you just spin around doing trips and gather useless stuff. A spaceport can not be build and there is no replace for the staff you can hire after the start. So if there are no gunners there never will be. Until you reset the game of course. Again it looks like there is slot more to this game , but there isn't. It may in fact be coded in the game but if the user can access it there it is not there. Save you money on the DCL the colors are barely noticeable .

I 'bought in' as an Early Supporter on Android. This was before any mention of Steam. The user CAN use the in-built cloud sync to utilize the same savegame on both Android and Steam; however if you, like me, have access to all the Early Supporter stuff in Android (ALL the DLC's in Steam), it does not appear to transfer when using the Cloud Sync. I am constantly hounded to 'buy' the DLC's in Steam, even though I already have access to it on Android. Once this is officially handled by the Dev's, I'll make this a thumbs up, regardless of which way they go with it. How can the Dev's handle it: Make an official announcement either way if this is a bug (Entitlements should only be purchased once) or working as intended (cash-grab).
