About the Game

Escape Pompeii is a trading adventure set during the final hours before Mount Vesuvius erupts. Scavenge goods throughout the city, trade with merchants, and accumulate wealth to buy your passage to safety. Time is running out.

Every trade counts. Limited coin, scarce goods, and competing interests force tough decisions. Gather enough wealth to secure a seat on the evacuation boat—or watch it sail without you as the ash falls.
