Hidden Guild

Hidden Guild frames political intrigue as a living sandbox: each scenario escalates pressure while 1–4 players teams improvise around shifting incentives. Its Family framework encourages risky pivots, especially once table politics reshape priorities. Map states remain highly legible despite scale; by late game, up to 27 tiles and layered markers support deep positional planning. Scenario goals favor adaptive teams: one mission asks for diplomatic efficiency, the next demands aggressive engine conversion under time pressure. Win or lose, Hidden Guild tends to produce table stories that reference specific gambits and betrayals for weeks afterward.
