The first two games in Koei's Daikoukai Jidai ("Great Age of Sailing") series, released for the SNES, were localized as Uncharted Waters. These are top-down, fairly open-ended RPGs with sim elements set in the Age of Discovery, where the player can sail, trade, explore, plunder, and more.

The PS1 had three Daikoukai Jidai games, none localized. The first was an enhanced port of Daikoukai Jidai II, which is a fan favorite. The second was Daikoukai Jidai Gaiden, a more character-centric, linear game that concludes the loose story of the first three entries. The third game is Daikoukai Jidai IV: Porto Estado, which made the gameplay more linear and somewhat more accessible; for example your characters no longer age, so you don't have to sire children in order to play as them when your original character dies. The presentation is also a lot more attractive and intuitive, with a side-view of the compartments of your ship, and gorgeous character illustrations.

However, if you want to play something more open-ended and sim-like, the first three games in the series are recommended above Gaiden or IV. (Daikoukai Jidai III was an interesting and experimental entry released only for PC.)
