<a id="guild-projects-options"></a>

- Complete guild tasks for shared experience. <a id="guild-projects-option-1"></a>
- Donate materials for infrastructure. <a id="guild-projects-option-2"></a>
- Join shared research and upgrades. <a id="guild-projects-option-3"></a>

## Design example

## Context and limits

A systematic RPG grind reference: 110 mechanics and 330 variants in 18 sections. Four layers answer different questions: what the player repeats, what develops, how rewards arrive and what constrains the loop. It covers single-player RPGs, ARPGs, MMORPGs and adjacent management and accumulation systems. Every mechanic has an explanation, variants and a hypothetical example; coverage, combinations and verified game observations follow the catalog.
