The Guild - Europa 1410 returns to the series' origins, building upon the original Europa 1400: The Guild as an economic simulation and dynasty management game. Players establish a fledgling dynasty and modest business in medieval Europe, then expand their enterprise and secure succession over generations. Master trade and production to build wealth, engage in complex politics through popularity, bribes, or blackmail, and navigate a web of relationships to influence the city's fortunes.
Choose from professions like blacksmith, alchemist, or tailor, managing business growth, or pursue alternative paths such as cart robberies, pickpocketing, and kidnapping for ransom. Alternatively, patrol streets with guardsmen to uphold the law, protecting the city and earning respect. Secure powerful political offices to advance ambitions and impede rivals, but be aware that criminal actions leave evidence for court. State-of-the-art graphics render a realistic, historic city, with new districts reflecting player actions. Multiplayer supports up to 12 players, allowing competition, collaboration, and various forms of rivalry including ambushes, court challenges, and duels. This experience offers a detailed simulation of medieval power struggles and societal influence.
