Patrician II vs Patrician III vs Port Royale
Patrician II vs Patrician III vs Port Royale.

Can anyone tell me the differences between these games please? They look pretty much the same to me at a glance.

Patrician series is more political than Port Royale. Port Royale is a cross between Sid Meier's Pirates, Colonization, and business building. But they are build on a similiar engine.

Their neither Turn Based Strategy nor Role Playing Game, their Real Time Strategy and Simulation.

I agree, didn't buy Spy Pirate Hunter cause it had a stupid name, but I am eagerly awaiting Port Royale II.

Oh, there's going to be Port Royale II? That means I will get cheaper soon.

Does anyone know how much of a difference there is between Patrician II and III? Is III just a glorified patch of II?
