I enjoyed "Die Fugger" a lot. Unfortunately it never saw the success of "The Patrician".
The following funny little side story might have contributed to that:
The game's publisher Sonflower was sued by a descendant of the Fugger family because they claimed the game puts the name of his family in a bad light. They won and "Die Fugger II" could not be sold anymore. "Die Fugger III" appeared under the name "Die Gilde".
