After a while he develops the system of guilds and promotes a union of traders for the commonwealth.
While playing the game it is necessary to either convince the adversary of a certain thing or to corner them by controlling the market.
Trading is mostly done by travelling from town to town and buying or selling goods.
It is also often needed to take on robbers in sword fights, which is done by tapping the screen with the stylus.
It is an adaptation of the long-running The Guild PC series where the player has to achieve a good reputation and has to get the possibility to buy himself a adequate title by doing clever economic activities and trade.
To achieve reputation and a high social rank is the main aim in this game.
The reputation can swing heavily between the extremes reputable and despicable, depending on the player's actions.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks The Guild DS for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Guild DS to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2009.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Guild DS, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo DS titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
