You manage colonial plantations and trade profits to reclaim a stolen art collection, balancing financial risk and careful planning.

What players say
Players praise this as a faithful remake of the Amiga-era Vermeer, with a board-game feel focused on trade and art collecting. Many note it is easy for adults to beat the AI, and the biggest limitation is hotseat-only multiplayer with no online option.
