The Guild 2: Pirates of the European Seas

The Guild 2: Pirates of the European Seas is a standalone expansion to the original The Guild 2. The gameplay involves taking control of a lowly worker and bringing their family to the top of the kingdom. Characters manage their businesses while seeking to expand the political influence of their family and eliminate their rivals. Players can choose from a variety of occupations including fishing, baking, thieving, and of course piracy. Strategic marriage alliances can allow your family to expand into other businesses and strengthen your clan. Manipulate and intimidate the town council or grease some palms and become an elected official yourself. Who can resist a game that allows you to set up a prostitution ring and a confessional church for full service to your clients?
