'''''[[Tradewinds''']]'' is a series of video games released by Sandlot Games. The original version, simply called ''Tradewinds'' (now called ''Tradewinds Classic''), has since spawned a number of sequels.
 
The basic premise of the first game is this: you start off in one of the ports in The Orient, with very little cash (or a huge debt, in some cases) and one ship. Your ship can be equipped with guns and loaded with cargo. You purchase the cargo from trading centers at ports. Ideally, your cargo should be bought low and sold high in order to make a profit.
Line 14:
The original ''Tradewinds'' was considered a turn-based strategy game due to the way all battles are conducted, with each side taking turns to fire at each other. Every sequel since conducts all battles in real-time. ''Legends, Odyssey'' and ''Caravans'' all have Story Mode.
