A Background on Tramp Shipping:

The traffic of goods by sea is organized in accordance with international agreements and contracts between individual countries.
About 80% of the goods (called "cargo volume") transported between two countries is handled by ships registered under the flags of the countries concerned. The remaining 20% are
open to the free competition of ships under other flags. These ships, called "tramp" ships, are usually prepared to transport all kinds of goods. This aspect of the shipping business is the focus of Ports of Call.

The Object of the Game

Each player founds his own shipping company, with a starting capital of $4.6 million to buy ships. Freight and ports of call can be chosen continuously from offers on the market.
Then the captain chooses an economic travelling speed and casts off to encounter many adventures on the high seas.

After unloading his cargo, the captain is credited with the agreed payment. Then he may refuel, make necessary repairs,
and so on. The next job is to find a new, lucrative cargo, buy further ships, and/or repay his mortgages; in other words,
he must have a more productive company than his competitors.

A players chances of success improve the more he knows about international shipping. All data for the game originated
from actual developments in the maritime world: the fluctuation of freight rates, refueling costs, port charges, and ship operating costs.

But the game is not a pure economic game, also a ship simulator is integrated, and the captain can steer his ship manually, either if necessary, or to save money and
get a good status.

In summary, Ports of Call has been developed with this motto in mind: "Software with Hard Facts."

latest hints: start using preowned ships, and keep them in good condition to avoid disasters (like rats for example).
To avoid the burglar, visit your office in a regular interval.

Portage fidèle

Ca fait toujours plaisir de retrouver les titres sympas de lAmiga sur iPhone. Certes le jeu est un peu répétitif et les axes de transports rentables auraient pu être un peu modifié, mais japprécie le fait de faire revivre sur iPhone danciens titres des années 80 quon a apprécié, doù 4 etoiles pour motiver les suivants ;)

Très bon portage

Le portage est fidèle. Les navires se commandent assez facilement grâce aux boutons rajoutés à la version iPhone. Lensemble va ravir les fans de ce classique.

Au top

Que de bons souvenirs, j adore ce jeu. Nhésitez pas a le telechrger, vous ne serez pas déçu.

Ça me manquait !

Vraiment super de retrouver ce jeux que j avais sur amiga. Ce serait bien de lui donner une nouvelle vie ... Un peu d évolution et je mets mes 5 étoiles ;)

Best Game ever!!!

Dieses Spiel war am Amiga schon Spitze und ist es am IPhone auch. Wenn noch eine deutsche Übersetzung kommt bin ich wunschlos glücklich! Absoluter Kauftipp!

Wie damals

Und auch auf dem iPhone super spielbar. Für Fans absoluter Kauftip!

Wie zu Amiga-Zeiten...

Eine 1:1 Umsetzung des damaligen Amiga-Spiels. Nichts ist dabei gekommen. Wer es damals gerne gespielt hat wird es auch heute gerne spielen. Aber für 3,99 etwas zu teuer, da die Bedienung zu fummelig ist.
