The
Vendor, Seeing Everything from Another Perspective
Depending
on your taste, you might leap filled with joy or groan at the next
sentence, but please, keep reading after it: In The Vendor, you play
as the Merchant NPC in an RPG adventure. Still here? Good.
And I
really, really like the way the game characterizes working as a
merchant. Your goal is to keep the adventuring party alive. How?
Well, there are a few steps: you'll scout the location before they
get there, find some resources, and combine them with things you find
in the overworld or talking to NPCs. Then, you try to get the party
to buy the best thing for the dungeon they are in (while turning a
profit). If they survive, you can buy their loot when they exit, to
exchange or transform into other items.
It's
oddly absorbing and faithful to how merchants work on RPGs, while
making you work for it and feel like an important part of the world.
It's pretty clear that without you, the party would not get anything
done. And only by being smart in your purchases and at finding
information about rare items you can get the best results.
The game
has more than one ending, and is short enough to have your choices
have consequences but not be a chore to replay to get the extra
endings. So... good luck! I wish you success in your commercial endeavor.
