The Lonesome Guild Reviews
The narrative is the highlight of the game, and the art direction does an excellent job of helping to tell that story. There are some gameplay shortcomings, such as the absence of a map or clearer direction on where to go, as well as enemies having too much HP. It is recommended for those looking for something lighter, but still meaningful.

The Lonesome Guild delivers a heartfelt and charming RPG adventure set in the beautifully mysterious world of Etere. With a unique possession-based combat system, a diverse cast of lovable characters, and a strong emotional core focused on friendship and loneliness, this adventure stands out as a cozy alternative to the typical autumn horror lineup. Despite a few mechanical hiccups and repetitive side quests, its thoughtful storytelling and character dynamics make it a memorable experience for RPG fans.
The Lonesome Guild is a heartfelt title built on the themes of friendship and togetherness, which are baked into the game’s core mechanics as well as its story. The combat mechanics may be a bit repetitive, and not every puzzle is a hit, but overall this wholesome adventure should appeal to many, though its cuteness and meme-y dialogue might polarize a few. For those who love it, though, The Lonesome Guild will leave you in a better place than when you started it.
The Lonesome Guild is a game that will find its audience through its visual appeal, but those wanting much deeper gameplay and story may be disappointed.
