Sorely needed the treatment 'The Guild 2: Renaissance got'. Not a bad game, just an unfinished one. Shame devs jumped ship. Can't recommend it over its predecessor, unfortunately. Worth it on sale and on sale only.

This should be put on a deep, permanent sale now that the next one is being planned. It's practically abandoned in an awful development state, but is fun nonetheless. I remind others that the newest one is a completely
