Awesome game ... a little too much for my small brain to handle.

Make a second one but don't change much. only change things like graphics and STUFF

"Fallout Meets The Oregon Trail"

by: Dizzy2D

date: November 16, 2009

This game is an excellent combination of mechanics and theme found in the two games Fallout and The Oregon Trail. Fallout lacked a real sense of economics, which was one of the few complaints I have about that game, while The Oregon Trail was strictly an economics/edutainment game that needed some a lot more edge.

Caravaneer reminds me of both of those games, but takes what was great about each of them and combines it to make for a really enjoyable game.

I believe it was never the author's intention to make such a simple game. This is an economics game and the planning is a major part of the design and for me; the appeal.

It's not perfect, but it's very good. My only real critiques would be the following:

*Some sort of trip mapping on the minimap could prove useful, in case you get off track and don't know where you are and therefor can't choose a direction to head in to find a city.

*After playing for a few hours, it seems the goods you loot from robbers are a bit too valuable. I like that the shop keepers won't accept too many of them, but they still seem to sell for quite a bit.

*Repetition. It's not uncommon to be attacked by the same number of robbers with the same amount of goods, several times in a row.

Overall though, it's one of my favorites on the Newgrounds.

"Excelent"

great gameplay, loved the turn based fighting style and the fact that you have to remember to get everything, but i think it should be a way fo the wining team to get his members back after a fight, and a question: is there any way to know the prices of the cities in resources and if not well there should be

"Delicious"

I dont think this game could have been improved at all. Maybe change the travelling times so you can go faster then the 'fast' fuction in the game. Other than that tiny blemish, its on epic game.

"A great game, but one thing seriously missing."

by: henrybrice

This definitely would have got a ten, if there was only a save function. I wasted 30 minutes of playing because I wrongly decided I was ready to go off to further cities. I was attacked by a group much, much larger than I'd seen before, and there was nothing I could do about it, and I died.

Given that there is no way to escape from a battle, or to run from robbers that are chasing you unless you are right next to a city, and given that there is no way of knowing how much harder it gets when you move further afield other than going and trying it, you really need a save function.

Other than that, one of the best online games I've played in a while. Wonderful range of things, even if it is frustrating to reach a town with you stock only to find that they don't buy it any more, that's a great part of the game! Thanks!

"Extensive, detailed, impressive"

by: PsychoHazard

date: September 10, 2009

Definitely one of the best Internet games I've played. Has its flaws but still deserves a 10.
Most impressive is the length of the game and the amount of detail - ammunition types for weapons, containers needed for liquids, prices changing, carts attached to animals, different actions in battle... Detailed management and yet simple enough not to be bothersome.
Story mode takes a while to actually become a story, but then it all becomes even more interesting and immersing.
There are small issues and places for improvement, but I'm not sure it's under development any more nor whether another game like it is in planning, so I'll leave out the petty complaints :)
