Strategies and tycoon games are becoming a part of casual genre and have earned a great popularity on desktop computers. But have you ever thought of playing a tycoon game on your PDA some day? So, here is a surprise from Astraware - Tradewinds, a British company that's been porting the pearls of casual games to mobile devices.

Their latest work is Tradewinds. The Windows version of this game - Tradewinds Legends was originally developed by Sandlot Games. As you remember, the game offers to try yourself as a merchant sail overseas, buying and selling goods, fighting pirates, upgrading your ship and earning gold. 

So, imagine, you are an owner of a big ship...are you ready for adventures with lots of risky tricks, challenging tasks and money?! Let's go then!

To begin with, choose your hero out of 4 brilliant characters. Thus, you may prefer to be a son of a sailor lost at sea, the youngest daughter of the wealthy merchant family etc.

Well, in Tradewinds Legends you have some directions of playing activity: trading and fighting pirates.

You may run your purchasing business while selling your cargo and buying the required supplies. You can stay tuned to the pirates' intentions and merchant deals while stopping up at taverns and overhearing the local rumors.  

It is very important for you that you constantly keep a proper balance between money and goods. It is the main business law, as you know.

The game complexity is increasing gradually. As there are no levels you'll get more and more information to keep in mind with every new task set.

As you have bigger ship and more cargo on it to sell, you'll have to find more lands and port in need of your goods. Purchase it properly and your profit will be rapidly increasing.

Besides, be ready to face lots of cruel sea pirates, trying to rob you and destroy your ship. Tutorials and accompanying information may help you to manage it.

Your ship may get into a great storm while sailing. So, be ready to apply your strategy skills to direct wisely.

Well, the great advantage of Tradewinds Legends is its lively dialogue process, which shows the heroes' characters and some peculiarities. You feel like speaking with real people and solve their real problems. Graphics are rather bright and impressive.

So, everybody is supposed to find something interesting in this game. As for me I appreciate a huge amount of interesting legends, contained in Tradewinds and the mood of summer...Just a  nice thing to play on your PDA.
