The players are plantation owners in Puerto Rico during the pioneering days. Growing up to five different kind of crops: Corn, Indigo, Coffee, Sugar and Tobacco, they must try to run their business more efficiently than their close competitors; growing crops and storing them efficiently, developing San Juan with useful buildings, deploying their colonists to best effect, selling crops at the right time, and most importantly, shipping their goods back to Europe for maximum benefit.
The game system lets players choose the order of the phases in each turn by allowing each player to choose a role from those remaining when it is their turn. No role can be selected twice in the same round. The player who selects the best roles to advance their position during the game will win.
You'll need to install the Curl RTE runtime environment to play the game. Once loaded the games runs in a small applet. The applet allows you to connect to the official Puerto Rico server where you can play the online version against human or computer players. You can also play a private game on your own PC.
Keep in mind that the AI isn't very smart but will give good practice to new players.
