Item Description

Lisbon, 1502. The Age of Discovery is in full swing, trade winds and ocean currents are still being charted, and a young captain named Leon Franco has one ship, a loyal first mate and a fallen noble family name to restore. Koei's Uncharted Waters turns that setup into an open-ended sailing adventure for the Super Nintendo, where you decide how fortune and fame will be won.

Trade is the backbone of the game. You buy goods in one port, carry them across the sea and haggle with stubborn merchants for a better price elsewhere, plowing the profits into larger ships, more crew and stronger fleets. Every voyage takes preparation: stock enough food and water for the crossing, keep your sailors in good spirits and watch for storms that can wreck a careless plan. Out at sea, pirates and rival fleets turn the trip into a fight, and naval battles let you trade cannon fire or close in and board the enemy.

The world itself is the reward. Setting out beyond the familiar ports of Europe, you discover distant harbors, exotic spices and gems, and the trade routes that make a captain rich. Fame earned through trade, exploration and victory at sea wins favor at the Portuguese court, and the king's rewards bring Leon closer to restoring his family's honor. Few console games of the early nineties trusted players with this much freedom, and the pleasure is in setting your own course, whether that means becoming a merchant prince, an explorer or a feared captain.

Uncharted Waters launched one of Koei's most enduring series, followed on the Super Nintendo by Uncharted Waters: New Horizons, and it is the place where the series' blend of trade, exploration and naval combat began. For strategy and simulation fans who enjoy planning, risk and slow-building success, it is a deep and unusual voyage on the system.
