Most strategy games solve conflict with bigger armies.

Dwarf Guild Mania does it with gold.

Instead of direct combat, rival dwarf guilds compete by:

  • Manipulating markets

  • Sabotaging infrastructure

  • Dispatching spies

  • Exploiting economic weakness

Every map is procedurally generated, and the economy reacts to player behavior, including yours.

Flood the market with gems? Prices crash. Ignore rivals? They won’t ignore you.

We wanted a game where:

  • Decisions have long-term consequences

  • Enemies adapt instead of following scripts

  • Economic pressure feels as dangerous as combat

If that sounds like your kind of strategy game, we’d love to hear your thoughts, and your worst economic betrayal stories.

Wishlist Dwarf Guild Mania to follow development and be notified at launch.
