Beggar's Banquet

Most people in Medieval Europe suffered in abject poverty, many driven to begging in the streets, their survival at the mercy of the passing nobility. In this game, players take on the role of lowly beggars, visiting village sites in search of sustenance and working the passing nobility for largess. Players can chose to exploit their own infirmities, or visit the cathedral in hopes of a miracle. During this struggle for survival, beggars must also avoid the stern eye of the village constable patrolling the streets. The winner is the player who can acquire the most alms to survive in the harsh world for another day.
