Four things it is not.
If you want a real-time clicker, this isn't it.
No shop yet
When there is one, the guide will show the most it can buy. Never troops, odds, sight or spells.
No hourly farming
A few decisions a day, not a job.
No install
It runs in the browser, on a phone or a desktop.
No autopilot
The developer opens each world. Joins stay open a week; NPC guilds are placed by hand.
Five races.

Fast, fragile, the best casters. Strike first, be gone before the answer comes, and let the spells hold the line.
Trade and science
- Trade
- Sells wood, buys iron.
- Science
- Magic cheaper, Military dearer.
Dwarf
Slow and expensive, and very hard to kill. Every soldier costs more and lasts longer.

Seven questions, answered.
- Do I need an account?
- No. Play puts you on the map. Keep the account later with an e-mail when you've something worth keeping.
- How long is a round?
- Thirty days. You join a world already under way, and your first city is one tap away.
- How much time does it take?
- Five minutes on most days; more on the first evening and during a siege.
- Who made this?
- One developer, in Lithuania. The whole story is in the devlog.
- Are the other players people?
- Worlds include scripted players, placed by hand, so a world is never empty; the game marks each one as an NPC.
- What can I buy?
- Nothing yet. When something is for sale, the guide will say exactly what it does and the most it can buy in a round. Money will never buy resources, troops, combat odds, sight, spells or science.
- Phone or desktop?
- Both, in the browser.

Who made it.
I had the first ideas for Guilds & Blades in 2018. I built a first version from December 2020 to 2023; it took more time than I had and was never finished. In 2026 I rebuilt it from scratch, with AI tools helping along the way, and finished it. It's a war game of cities, armies and guilds: thirty days a round, a few decisions a day.
