You manage a remote caravanserai on the Silk Road. The desert is unforgiving, and passing merchants are tired, thirsty, and looking for a safe place to rest. It’s your job to build an outpost that provides shelter, supplies, and a place to trade. While making a profit.
Every drop of water counts. Start by doing the heavy lifting yourself. Manually crank the well to fill your reserves, gather local resources, and keep the sand at bay.
Your guests travel with valuable cargo and essential pack animals. Guide their camels into your stables, ensure they are fed and watered, and keep them healthy. A well-rested caravan means happy merchants, better reviews for your outpost, and more gold in your pocket.
Take your profits and reinvest them into your outpost. Use a precise grid-based building system to lay out guest rooms, storage areas, and market stalls. Upgrade your basic tents to sturdy mud-brick walls, buy better furniture, and decorate the space to attract wealthier traders.
