The Guild of Thieves is a notable classic text adventure game, originally released by Magnetic Scrolls in 1987 and recognized with awards for its innovative approach to interactive storytelling.

Players assume the role of an aspiring thief aiming to join the notorious Guild of Thieves, whose exploits are steeped in the folklore of the fictional land of Kerovnia. The game presents a challenge that requires players to ransack a castle, its surrounding area, and even the Bank of Kerovnia for valuables. While the premise is enticing, the game's complexity may leave one wondering about their chances of success.

Magnetic Scrolls emerged as a pioneering force in the development of visually rich text adventure games and was among the most prominent developers of interactive fiction during the 1980s. Their innovative contributions laid the groundwork for future advancements in the genre.

The remastered version of The Guild of Thieves has been revitalized by Stand Games with permission from the original creators, achieving adaptation for modern devices and enhanced user interface. Key features of this remaster include:

  • Touch-Text Commands: Players can achieve actions effortlessly by tapping "links" within the text, eliminating extensive typing.
  • Game-Specific Word Suggestions: A word bar facilitates time-saving during input by offering suggested words relevant to the game.
  • Sidebar Inventory: Items are conveniently displayed in a sidebar with icons, allowing easy drag-and-drop functionality for use and interaction.
  • Dynamic Map: As players navigate through the game, a map expands automatically to reflect their exploration, with options to fast-travel to visited locations.
  • Compass Rose: An integrated compass allows users to effortlessly navigate by displaying available exits at any moment.

The enhancements not only make the original game engaging for modern mobile users but also introduce features such as multi-level undo, save/load options, and automatic response mechanisms to dying—bringing a fresh experience to a classic title.

This remaster retains the original artwork while introducing animated visuals and new music composed by John Malloy, further enriching the auditory experience.

The team behind this remaster is dedicated to restoring original game content and developing new interactive fiction technologies. Their blog provides ongoing updates on their progress and initiatives: Strand Games Blog.
