Set in the vibrant and tumultuous era of the 19th Century, players will be immersed in the lives of Chinese merchants navigating the dynamic trade scene of colonial Singapore.
Governed by the British East India Company, Singapore flourished as a bustling trading hub in Southeast Asia during this time. However, the success of many Chinese merchants relied heavily on the influence and aid of secret societies.

By strategically manipulating the goods favored by the Secret Society, players can increase the value of their own goods.
