High Tea is a strategic plate-spinning game, you play an independent British smuggler selling opium in China's Pearl Delta.

Buy cheap and sell high to make a profit, but make sure you also obtain enough tea to keep Britain happy. You have ten years before the opium wars begin - can you make your fortune?

Based on historical events, this game also shines a light on a questionable episode in the history of the British Empire.

Exelent

Its not common that an economic strategy game is so adictive. I think that this is great.

Now that I think, gamers, have you ever spect that games based in history were in fashion some day?

strategic beyond what it looks

completed it on my 3rd play with a score of 77,611,851 a very intriguing game but slightly repetitive and linear here are a few tips on how to beat it:
1.purchase exactly 45 crates of opium and save the rest of the cash when just starting as prices tend to become 45-60 in most of the game
2.when opium prices drop buy a frik load of it due to the fact that you can earn at lest 3 times the amount u spent(i bought about 300 crates when the prices where at about 6-25)
3. do everything to get your tea quota but do not neglect the sale and purchase of opium either!
4.use the bribe card earlier in the game as it becomes useless in a while
5. never ever spend all your cash you must always have a little left in case of emergencies!
well thats all the tips i have! happy illegal drug trafficking!

S'good

It's a niche kind of game, of course it's gonna be repetitive, that's pretty much what stocks are. And luck is a pretty big part of how successful you can be, as it is with the game. So it does get frustrating, but it's very winnable, and enjoyable.

Actually it makes me wanna go back and play Drug Wars.
