What kind of game is The Lantern Guild?
It is a management game about choosing who goes where. Expeditions can last several days, so sending everyone away may leave nobody for tomorrow's urgent request. The full Windows campaign runs over three 100-day years with four seasons each; the browser demo is a compact seven-day introduction.
How to play
- Select a job, choose adventurers, then press Assign.
- Allocate your other teams.
- Press End day. Time only moves when you end the day.
Progress saves locally. Use Export save for a backup, because clearing browser data can erase it. Demo progress does not carry into the full campaign.
Full game features
- Twelve recruitable adventurers with different specialties.
- Training, crafted gear and rare relics.
- Guildhall upgrades with adventurers appointed to run facilities.
- Connected investigations, four possible calamities and fourteen achievements.
- A final party of up to four champions.
