Colonial Trader is an adventure game for the Commodore 64. The game combines elements of shoot'em up and economic simulation, similar to the concept of Elite. The plot begins with the inheritance of the player's father, who leaves him colony credits. With this starting capital, the player purchases an older all-round glider and begins his career as a trader between different colonies. The aim is to upgrade the glider through trade and skillful navigation in space and to become a successful trader. The graphic representation alternates between a top view in space, reminiscent of Asteroids, and static menus in the space stations. The game is accompanied musically by title music and menu sounds, while only isolated sound effects can be heard in the game itself.
