Anno 1404 - History Edition

Anno 1404 - History Edition is a re-release of the classic city-planning simulator with updated graphics and 4K support. The game is optimized for modern cars and includes the Venice add-on. Multiplayer has also appeared: allies can build together or fight with each other. Old saves from the local disk are also picked up. The Venice campaign adds canals and new buildings. Advisors and spies have been added to the list of units, and there are also new items among ships, tasks and items. The gameplay remains classic: the player builds Imperial Cathedrals and Sultan Mosques. Construction is divided into phases, and each opens after meeting the conditions. A spy is capable of undermining the reputation of another merchant. Orient ships operate on schedule. Trade is considered one of the main activities. Spices, indigo and quartz have to be imported from the eastern lands. Warships allow you to invade foreign countries. Taxes in your own country provide a constant increase in profits. Plantations and workshops supply the city with goods. Prices for spices change every season. Craftsmen are asking for new tools. The campaign consists of eight chapters and three difficulty levels. The player plays for Richard Norberg, His Majesty's cousin. While the city is being rebuilt, Cardinal Lucius is preparing a crusade against the eastern powers. Later, an alliance with Al Zahir, the Sultan's vizier, will be required to jointly defeat the pirates. Tax collections depend on the trust of citizens. For those who appreciate leisurely construction and trading, this game is suitable.
