Description
It’s the year 1400- the late Middle Ages. Europe sees the dawn of the golden age of the new departures and the free spirit. Under the rule of the bourgeoisie and businessmen, more and more towns are emerging from the clutches of the aristocracy and are achieving independence, power and wealth. New businesses are flourishing, bringing financial strength and political influence to a growing economy.

However, life in the narrow, overpopulated alleyways and streets of the towns also has its downsides: epidemics and diseases are spreading, and thieves and highwaymen lie in wait to get their piece of the wealth. Now you can try your hand in these exciting times of change. Will you head down the path of an honest craftsman or a dubious priest? It’s your choice.

great game but laggy

The Guild 1 is a great game (see Calli's review) but for me it laggs really hard. Without the lag it would be one of my favourite games by far.

Great idea. Unplayably bad execution.

I like the idea of this game a lot. You role-play as a middle-class townsperson in Europe in the 15th and 16th centuries. The designers obviously put a attention into the details. There is a good and balanced system behind the mechanics of the game. That good and balanced system could have made for a really fun and engaging game. Maybe, if someone had made a UI that sucked less, it could have. That's not what happened here. Someone decided it was necessary to represent everything using 3D models where you click on the thing you want. Except the thing you want often isn't even on-screen, so you need to scroll. And it has a crappy, flashy, "look at the camera move! it's really 3D" animation whenever you scroll. So you spend a lot of time scrolling and clicking on things. Meanwhile, the game clock is ticking and stuff is happening in the background that you might need to react to.
