What this is
Produce and ship goods in a dynamic economic ecosystem in the Indonesian archipelago. That might change the outlook … considerably, in fact … let’s see… Indonesia is a game in which two to five players build up an economy, trying to acquire the most money. Players can research advantages, like greater shipping capacity or the ability to merge companies, possibly stealing ownership of lucrative plantations or shipping routes by buying out other players.
