Ten Thousand Coins: The Golden Merchant is a story-rich strategy trading game. Guide the fox merchant Viia on her journey of trades, profits, and survival through the danger-ridden land of Grand Emperium as she battles fate and fortune against the mighty Basilisk Company.
Years prior, while a Ravenn merchant trades in this war-ravaged land, he makes a shocking discovery and finds a mysterious little companion. His actions and tribulations will determine the fate of those who journey after.
Trade your way through a character-driven, non-linear story set in a hand-drawn fantasy world. In this land of cutthroat commerce, every opportunity is yours for the taking if you’re willing to pay the price.
