Overview

Features & Capabilities

A complete port of the classic 1982 game Taipan!, balanced to mimic the original Apple ][ release. This game's look evokes the phosphorescent glow of an early-80's CRT, but its interface has been tailored for ease-of-use on a mobile device.

  • Sail the Western Pacific of the 1860's!
  • Trade exotic goods!
  • Battle fierce pirates!
  • Evade customs officials!
  • Fend off muggers, cutthroats, and thieves!
  • And, Li Yuen reminds you to always pay proper tribute to Tin Hau, the Sea Goddess!

Download the game for free, pay only if you want to extend play beyond 12 months game time. (We feel confident that you will!)

Crashes more than it works :( used to play this on apple ][+

by Tu*****

You let me play for 5 seconds and then say I need to pay to continue. I’m sorry, the game is fun, but you really think you can charge for this? It’s like the most portly quickly thrown together app I’ve ever seen there is no effort and you want to charge? I can go play it on my Roku for free
