Others say...
"Spanish Mission Impossible" This would be an apt subtitle for "Port Royale 2." This is a beautiful game in many respects, but the designers have a strange idea of fun: yeah, why not inveigle you into sending your poor ships one at a time against an military convoy of vessels more powerful than you can possibly acquire yourself, which attack you five at a time? See your whole fleet go up in smoke after doing just token damage to the enemy? Or attempt to capture a city (similar chances for success) just to rescue a little puppy dog?
Some reviewers have warned about a "steep learning curve." That's an understatement. I can handle steep learning curves. What I can't handle is ridiculous odds and suicide. For two weeks I gave it my best shot, but the game difficulty is still "easy" and my patience for punishment is exhausted. What one learns is that it's best to just stay out of the governor's palace. He's a twit and evidently doesn't like you at all. But without governors' missions, there's not much interest left to the game.

"Couldn't be better" That's probably the most impressive and smartest RTS on the market. Amazing realistic graphics, real history (well, not too real, but...), real geography. Protect, not to nuke, build, not to destroy, produce, not to waste, - what could be better to point the kids to the right direction?.. I'd rate this game as the best one.
"Serious design flaws make this game a snoozer." Here's a perfect example of what's wrong with this game. I was asked by a governor to go build a school in Corpus Christi. OK, I went to Corpus Christi and started trading with that town, because before you can build anything in a town, you need a building permit, and before you can buy a building permit, you have to impress the locals by delivering a ton of goods. I spent most of my allotted time currying favor with Corpus Christi, until finally I had enough merit to buy a building permit--only to be told that my rank was not high enough to have more than three building permits in the Caribbean, and I already had three. I should come back when my rank is higher. Of course, time expired and my mission failed. The governor was "very angry" with me.
OK, what's the point of sending someone on a mission that can't be completed? That's not fun. That's just a waste of time. (And you know what's really unfair about this? All those offending building permits were awarded to me for free for earlier service. I didn't even have a choice.)
Another problem: you can set up automatic trade routes to trade at the docks of various towns, and this nets you some easy money, but it won't do what you really need it to do: your automated captain cannot access your own warehouse if you have one in the town. That means your sugar plantation in one town cannot automatically supply your rum distillery in another town. You have to keep MANUALLY sailing from one town to the other, loading sugar, unloading sugar, loading rum, unloading rum. Do you know how boring that gets? Buy the game if you want to find out.
"Port Royale 2" Great game, love the music in the game, you seem to be right there. Play it all the time.

What our customer's say!
"This game will not work on my computer.", After various attempts to make Port Royale 2 work on my brand new Dell computer I still have had no success! I have contacted the manufacturer who has given me several suggestions and I have tried them all. I will never order another product from them until they fix this problem.
"Very historically inaccurate", I got this game along with the "Buccaneer's Bounty" pack, which I bought mostly for the Patrician 3 game I read reviews of beforehand (and which I still am intrigued in and playing). I tried PR2 and it started good, very similar to Patrician 3 but in the Caribbean. I liked the much vaster array of ships to choose from.
But I quickly lost interest in the game. Why? It doesn't even make half an attempt to be historically inaccurate, and that to me is a huge deal-killer in games like this. I started playing the Maracaibo tutorial and learned the basics of the game, then tried a single player campaign. It started off well, but then I started sailing around finding cities EVERYWHERE.
I thought there might be one or two isolated Dutch settlements in the northeast islands, but there was a settlement on almost every single island, if not every island. The islands further south were riddled with English settlements, the Florida coast was chock full of French settlements, and the Gulf of Mexico coast had a Spanish settlement every couple squares. Well that might make for more engrossing gameplay with so many cities, but as far as historical accuracy goes, it might as well have been on the moon.
In the year I played (I think it was around 1585), historically there were actually ZERO Dutch, ZERO English, and ZERO French settlements in the Caribbean, and you can bet the modern-day Southern U.S. coast was not colonized, except for perhaps one or two tiny settlements. The truth of the matter is that at this point in history, the Caribbean was a Spanish lake. I could understand maybe one or two isolated French/Dutch/English settlements to get the game going for the other countries, but it was big-time overkill seeing the entire map already completely colonized.
This huge disservice to historical accuracy made me lose interest in the game on the first session. If you appreciate games for the historical side, I do not recommend Port Royale 2.
"This game is awesome!", This game has a lot of strategy included to make it one of the best games I have ever played. A few years ago, I had over twenty-million gold and many large convoys, but we uninstalled it. Now though, I have it on a computer and am playing away!
"Excellent Game!", Wonderfully open ended economic simulator with just enough violence and mayhem to give it an edge. The combat portions, both ship to ship, and dueling, are simple and unencumbered. And while they may lack the diversity and thoroughness of several other games, it is still fun giving the enemy a full broadsides. About the only think I wish this game had was an in game encyclopedia similar to Sid Meier's Pirates.
"Port Royale 2", The game is pretty cool. Similar to sid meier's pirates. There is more trading and economics of scale in Port royale. The naval combat is better in Pirates. I don't think port royale is very fair. Even if you have 4 war ships in your feet, you are only allowed to fight with one, while the computer is allowed to fight with all 4 or more at the same time. Personally, I enjoy pirates more.

Read this reviews before You buy...
"Great Game", Unfortunately, a lot of these reviews are trying to compare Port Royale 2 to the remake of Sid Meier's Pirates. The two games are not meant to be alike. This game, made by the same company that gave us the Patrician series, is a carribean trading game with a good amount of action included. It's about building up a legal or illegal trading empire. Sid Meier's Pirates is an action game - trading plays almost no role.
This game excels in the trading genre, and is ok in the action drama. It doesn't rely on as much micromanagement as the Patrician series, but still manages to deliver.
"Great game, but be sure on what you're looking for.", This is a great game, very fun, but make sure this is what you are looking for. This is not some sort of action, adventure, or RPG game. This is a strategy. My review won't go into detail, you can read tons of detail from other reviews, but I wanted to make sure you all know, this is a strategy game, don't buy it thinking it is anything other than that.
"Port Royale 2", I downloaded the demo version and liked it so I ordered the game. I opened it and tried to load it onto my computer. Wouldn't do it. Tried another computer, still wouldn't do it. I then tried my wifes computer and it downloaded. Tried to play it and it crashed. I went to the website and found I wasn't the only one having a problem, the answers were evidently in the video card. I gave it to my son. He downloaded it on his homebuilt computer and it works. question 1 and 2 are his feelings about the game. He thanks me for buying the game for him. Advice, make sure you have everything the system requirements ask for before you buy the game. I thought that since the demo worked so well that the full game would also, wrong.
"Good Game", I am a pirate simulation guy. I played Pirates, Pirates Gold, Pirates 2004, Sea Dogs, Pirates of the Caribbean, Port Royale and High Seas. No game has the trading down like Port Royale 2. It is the best trade simulation game available, bar none. With that said, the piracy part of the game is very difficult. You cannot operate at all without a Letter of Marque. If you attack a country's ships without a letter everyone pretty much hates you and you cannot trade any more. The game for you is basically over. You need to trade (which means you probably need to be friendly with 2 countries). Although you can buy your reputation back to neutral or just wait long enough for your reputation to get better. I think this makes the game more true to life.
The ship to ship fighting is pretty basic, you need to have more men than your opponent or you will lose. A bigger ship with more men is necessary to win most battles. Unlike Pirates where you can always win whether you are in a rowboat or a ship of the line. Sometimes there is a sword fight, which is impossible to lose unless you close your eyes until the fight is over.
You can get married; look for buried treasure find castaways floating chests. There is really a lot to do in this game. Time does not fly by and you really have control over how much time actually goes by. This can be accomplished by slowing time down when you are in town and speeding it up when you are at sea. There is no wind to speak of in the game, not historically accurate but who cares? Nothing is more boring than watching your ship take forever getting from one place to another.
You can personally control many sea captains and ships. It can get very hectic and long-winded but all in all I think this is a good game. I have played it more than the new Pirates since I find it much more challenging. A superior trade simulation where you can actually trade tobacco...imagine that, oh wait Sid Meier couldn't. It is worth the 20 bucks to pick up a copy.
"interesting pc game", the scenarios are good. without the scenarios it would be a lot less interesting. Trading is probably the main part of this game; though fighting pirates and tradesmen can be fun. Pity you cannot begin the game as a pirate - you can only give ships to a pirate for a share in the spoils.
Unless you are on super-fast mode this is a long game - even if you are playing in a scenario it can be long and drawn out.
Also noticed that while the game is has good visual effects; the objects are out of proportion.
