Modification Tools
Cheat Engine Table (+2)
A +2 Cheat Engine table is available for the Guildrun Demo v1.0, offering two core functions that allow players to accelerate progression and remove economic restrictions .
Key Functions:
Shard Gain Multiplier: Adjusts the number of shards earned after battles. The default multiplier is 100 (x1). Setting it to 200 gives x2, 500 gives x5, and so on .
Free Shop Purchases: Purchases in the shop do not consume any shards .
Installation Instructions:
Download and install Cheat Engine 7.5 or higher .
Double-click the .CT file to open it in Cheat Engine .
Click the PC icon and select the Guildrun.exe game process .
Activate the desired options by checking the corresponding boxes or setting values from 0 to 1 .
Important Notes: This table is for the v1.0 initial release and may break after game updates. The table is in Traditional Chinese and includes full translations of all functions . Always backup save files before using Cheat Engine, and use modifications only in single-player sessions .
Cheat Engine Table (Shards and Shop Editor)
Another +2 table by paroxysm85 offers a Shards and Shop Editor with similar functionality . The table is compatible with Cheat Engine and provides a straightforward interface for modifying shard values and shop prices. Installation follows the same process: load the .CT file in Cheat Engine, select the game process, and activate the desired options .
Mod Engine Platform
The Guildrun trainer is also available through Mod Engine, a platform that provides cheats in a user-friendly interface . The trainer works with Steam, Microsoft Store GamePass, Epic Games, and free versions of the game. To use it, install Mod Engine, search for Guildrun, select the game process, and activate options via the interface or hotkeys .
XMODhub Trainer
The XMODhub platform offers a dedicated single-player trainer for Guildrun that provides one-click cheats without risking save corruption . It hooks into the game safely and cleanly, updating memory pointers with each patch for stability. The trainer is achievement-safe, bypassing the game's internal cheat-flagging system, and protects save files by altering values temporarily in system RAM . Installation involves downloading and launching the XMODhub desktop app, searching for Guildrun, clicking Play, and toggling cheats via the clean UI or pre-assigned hotkeys .
Thai Localization Mod
A Thai localization mod is available for the Guildrun Demo, providing fan-made subtitle translations . Installation requires extracting the .zip file and placing all files into the game folder. The mod uses AI-assisted translation and is for the demo version only .
Gameplay Overview
Core Mechanics
Guildrun is an autobattler where players position heroes on a hex grid before combat, and fights resolve automatically . The real decision-making happens between battles: upgrading heroes, buying items and relics, and piecing together synergistic teams . Runs are approximately 20 minutes long and can be saved and resumed at any time .
Key Systems:
Heroes: 25 heroes across multiple classes, each with unique abilities and specializations .
Rank-Ups: Heroes start at Rank C and progress through B, A, and S ranks. Each rank-up offers a choice of one of three specializations, which can grant a second class and significantly alter the hero's role .
Shards: The in-game currency earned as rewards between rounds and generated during combat. Used to purchase heroes, items, and relics in shops .
Relics: Powerful items that affect the whole team or specific classes. Similar to Slay the Spire relics, they meaningfully change how the team plays .
Items: Equipment that attaches to individual heroes, with up to six slots per hero. Items come in different rarities and can transform a hero's performance .
Backup: Heroes in reserve can still contribute through Backup effects, such as healing, shielding, or providing team-wide buffs .
Difficulty System
The game features eight difficulty levels: Base, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS, and Red Rift . Each level stacks modifiers from all previous levels. For example, choosing SSS applies C's combat-start HP loss, A's reduced Shard income, and S's one-item-per-rank cap all at once . The demo includes the Base difficulty and the first two acts .
Class Synergies
Classes blend together, making multiclassing a key strategic element . For example, pairing a Tank with an Assassin can create a durable damage dealer, while taking a Duelist and turning them into an Assassin applies an execution effect to all Duelists and Assassins on the team . Assassin heroes tend to excel in the early game, and their Shard generation can kickstart the economy .
Frequently Asked Questions

The game features 25 heroes with 180 specializations, over 300 relics, 100+ items, and eight difficulty levels, with runs averaging 20 minutes . All modification tools are safe for single-player use and will not result in bans.
