Tradewinds Caravans

Adventure awaits you in Tradewinds Caravans, the latest installment in the acclaimed Tradewinds Series. As the Middle Ages unfold in the West, cultural centers and merchants across Asia are linked together by an ancient trade route - stretching from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea to China - known as the legendary Silk Road.
Guide six brave heroes as they navigate treacherous terrain swarming with dangerous bandits. Follow their intriguing adventures as they trade exotic goods and engage in real-time battles, all while building the most powerful trading caravan the world has ever seen. Embark on challenging quests, hire fiercely loyal warriors for protection and explore a long-lost world teeming with tantalizing secrets, hidden cities and legends of mythical creatures.
There are a large number of characters that you will come into contact with, or play as, during Tradewinds Caravans and each has different characteristics and purposes within the game. Each city and town will have a unique collection of buildings which you can visit. Not all buildings will be available in each city, so pay attention to what is located where. Bandits will try to take your money and goods. You can fight these guys. Your fighters will automatically engage the enemy when you click on the swords icon below. Each unit will fight for themselves and already knows to attack the closest enemy to them. You'll have to wear down your opponent's Health Bar to win and each unit has their own health.
