Merchant of the Skies

You begin as the captain of a small airship in a world of floating islands. Explore the skies, visit settlements, meet characters, and take on quests as you build a trading company.

Buy goods at one island and sell them elsewhere, carry deliveries, and gather resources. Your ship’s cargo and energy shape where you can travel and what you can transport as you uncover more of the map.

Use your earnings to acquire ships and islands, set up buildings that produce goods, and arrange caravans to move supplies automatically. Play through a campaign of character quests or choose sandbox mode to focus on trade, production, and building a mansion.

Players who enjoy the game often describe it as a relaxing, approachable trading experience, with the appeal of exploring islands, finding profitable routes, and gradually expanding into production and automation. Its cozy presentation and straightforward progression also draw praise. Other reviews find that repeated trading and hauling can become a grind, especially later in the game.
