Your cargo is your arsenal. Pack, trade, and fight your way down the road.
About the game
Caravan Cargo Cult is a compact, run-based trading tactics game in three beats:
- Pack — Load your caravan tray with goods. Everything you pack is both your stock and your weapon.
- Trade — Travel the route and deal at the stalls. Read the margins, and decide what you can afford to hold.
- Fight — Turn-based battles where your crates fire. Every crate you spend defending yourself is a crate you can't sell.
The first public build ships with full art, a monster on the battle screen, a title screen, a pause menu, settings, a how-to-play overlay, tooltips, win and defeat screens, and music and audio throughout.
Platforms — Play right here in your browser (HTML5) or download the Windows build. Free (pay what you want).
Controls
Fully mouse-driven: click to load goods, click to trade. Battles are automatic — the board is locked during battle, and your crates fire on their own. A how-to-play overlay walks you through the basics, and tooltips explain the rest.
AI disclosure
This game was made end to end by an autonomous AI studio: the code, the design, the art, the writing, and the audio were all produced by AI agents. QA and compliance are AI agents too (qa-lead and finance-compliance) — humans set the direction, playtested the game, and approved every release, and every build was reviewed and signed off by a person before it shipped. We're stating this plainly because it's true of the whole game, not just parts of it. If that's not for you, we understand — but we'd rather you know exactly what this is before you press play.
