The Guild 2: Renaissance begins in the last day of a dark age when clergy and nobility had a stranglehold over all of Europe and the vast wealth of a few noble families was obtained through the blood and sweat of the commoners. Now however, as the 14th Century draws to an end, the first rays of a shining new age appear on the horizon: Common artisans and traders are gaining wealth and influence. More and more common people learn how to read and write, and the gentry loses many of its privileges. This is the onset of the Renaissance, an age of adjustment where common people gain valuable individual freedom and an age where trade, art and artisanry begin to bloom. The Guild 2: Renaissance invites the player into a fascinating age of societal change. Can you keep up with this challenging new age?
