Grand Guilds

Grand Guilds is a tactical RPG that also uses the card games mechanics. The game is set in a rather typical fantasy world - its plot focuses on a group of friends who are trying to stop the coming war. The game was developed and published by Drix Studios (creators of the Unaided: 1939).

Plot

The main character of the Grand Guilds is a warrior named Eliza. The woman returned to city of Ozryn after a year-long combat mission, but instead of calm, she encountered another conflict at home - the town was invaded by a horde of monsters. After repulsing the attack, Eliza, supported by her friends, tries to find out where the attackers came from and what their aim was.

Mechanics

Grand Guilds is a fairly classic tactical RPG, reminiscent of Final Fantasy Tactics or the Disgaea series. We're watching the action here from an isometric perspective, and our task is to win subsequent battles and gradually discover the plot thread developed by the creators.

The combat system is turn-based and requires the sensible use of the special abilities of the individual characters. In the game you can also find elements of mechanics characteristic for card games. The skills are cards here, and adjusting the character's repertoire requires managing the associated deck. Each character also has its own characteristics, which distinguish it from others. Our soldiers can play different roles, specializing in attracting the enemy's attention ( i.e. tanks), attacking or providing support to comrades.

During the game we can also perform additional, randomly generated tasks, thanks to which we gain bonus prizes.

Game modes

We can only play Grand Guilds alone. The basis of the game is a feature campaign.

Technical aspects

Grand Guilds has decent, three-dimensional graphics. Nothing stands out here exceptionally, but both the character models and the environment have a good level of detail, and the light effects accompanying the game make a good impression. It is worth noting that the game is maintained in a comic book style, reminiscent of manga.
