Features:
Complex economic system:
The production of goods and skillful trade in them form the basis of all success and lead to influence and prosperity.
Political participation right:
The successful election campaign for secular, ecclesiastical or dark offices is worthwhile: anyone who, for example, is allowed to participate in decision-making on draft laws, outdoes their unwelcome teammates in good time.
Friend or foe?
Drinking together in the tavern or is it bribery and active espionage? Find suitable allies or make life difficult for your competitors through clever political tactics, targeted sabotage and devious intrigues.
Strategic structure:
Let your empire grow steadily: Build bigger and nicer houses that are worthy of your social position. Grow your operations to be more productive and get the money flowing.
Beyond death:
You are at the beginning of your dynasty – but when Grim Reaper knocks on your door, capable and well-trained descendants protect your life’s work from ruin.
Anno Domini 1400.
The world is changing and is shedding the last shadow of the Middle Ages. A golden age is ahead! Trade flourishes and as financial strength grows, so does the influence of formerly ordinary citizens on the fate of politics and the economy. The class boundaries that previously seemed to have been carved in stone have long since crumbled. Even the exclusive privileges of the nobility and the associated influence of power are no longer inaccessible for ambitious merchants, talented craftsmen and ambitious clergymen!
The browser game Gilde 1400 puts the player directly into the hustle and bustle of a medieval city. Here lies the foundation for his own family dynasty. With an honorable job, commercial skills and political cunning, he sets the right course for building a powerful economic empire. But not only the upright path, but also dark machinations and underhand intrigues can just as quickly lead to reputation, power and prosperity, even if not entirely without danger. But at the head of a guild, fame and fortune await the most skilful adventurers and reward them for the arduous way to the top!
For the free virtual worlds of Gameforge, the player only needs a web browser and internet access. The game events are calculated on the Gameforge servers; an installation on the hard drive is not necessary. The game can be accessed from any computer.
