About the Game

In The Wandering Trader, you step into the boots of a traveling adventurer, hiking through serene, sparsely populated mountain landscapes. As you explore breathtaking vistas of towering peaks, deep valleys, shimmering lakes, and cascading waterfalls, you discover hidden treasures and unique items scattered throughout the world. With every new find, you engage in friendly trade with the few inhabitants who call these remote places home. This is a peaceful and relaxing experience where nature’s beauty and the joy of discovery await you at every turn.

What to Expect

  • You start as a homeless wanderer, with the choice of traveling as either a man or a woman.

  • You'll find yourself in a mountainous landscape, where you can roam freely.

  • While hiking, you can find all kinds of things, such as equipment, fruits, materials, and sometimes even true treasures.

  • Some materials can be crafted into more valuable products.

  • The items you find and create can be sold to the people living in the sparsely populated mountain region.

  • With some of the mountain dwellers, you can also purchase products at a low price and sell them elsewhere for a profit.

  • Some of the mountain inhabitants will ask you to complete tasks for them. When you complete these tasks, you can expect rewards.

  • Once you've saved enough money, you can buy your own house. The options range from an affordable cabin to a larger family home.

  • As soon as you own a house big enough for multiple people, you can enter into a partnership and even have children—if you wish to, of course.
