If you’ve ever dreamed of becoming a 19th-century merchant sailing the high seas with a suspiciously optimistic outlook on international trade, 1869 is your jam. It throws you into the age of clipper ships, where profit margins are thinner than your sailor’s rations and storms love to ruin your day. You’ll juggle cargo, haggle prices, and chase down contracts across a world map that looks like your grandpa’s globe. It’s educational, in the sense that you’ll learn how bad you are at economics. And just when you think you’ve mastered it, pirates or tariffs remind you who's boss.
