Description
The Adventurer’s Guild is a narrative driven simulation management game. You play as the newly appointed Guildmaster of the Northern Plains. With a small crew of adventurers, you’re tasked with helping the small town of Cynbalt complete the tasks of everyday living. Send adventurers to fight monsters, explore the land, settle disputes, and interact with powerful factions. Keep an eye on your funds, and decide the fate of the Northern Plains, one quest at a time.
History
The Adventurer’s Guild spawned as a result of a bunch of Dungeons and Dragons games that Eric (they/them) played through college. After taking an Interactive Storytelling class, they set out to make this game in their capstone class. Currently, the entire team is made up of students, 8 graduating seniors of the UCSC Game Design programs and 4 other undergraduates from CS, art, and game design. We intended to make a game that critiques the middle managers and the amount of power located in the hands of someone so far and distant.
