Anno 1701: Dawn of Discovery — About this game
A small settlement becomes a busy island economy in this Nintendo DS entry. Homes need food and other goods, workshops need resources, and roads connect production with the people it supports. Explore the surrounding islands, expand when supplies allow it and keep an eye on the treasury. The appeal lies in getting several small systems to work together: another house brings income, but also creates another demand to meet.
