Game was worth the price. But ultimately the game flattens out in late game with little to do towards the end. It gets stale when you max your tech tree, and seem to reach a limit with troop numbers. And with how resources like Iron and coal are on the map, every map has a cap on max iron. With how long it takes to produce weapons/armor it becomes clear they're is a production limit, which limits your military growth per map. The game was fun for what I paid for it. But its one of those play a map to the limit I mention above, and either start a new map or a different game. The most fun I had was building the settlement up. Id recommend, its not an expensive game and it was fun for what it is.

Solid enough (but nothing memorable) city builder with some raiding elements involved (no direct combat-resolved via screen decisions). If you like city builders that don't require a lot of micromanagement this will do.

I named my Hero Ragnar Lodbrok and send him to discover west he did! And his brother Rollo helped him in his journey, When they come back i set up a raid group send them to make odin happy! Rollo died, Ragnar came back and died of old age 74 y.o I guess you age much faster in this game ? :D Game says 6 years passed but i already saw 10-20 generations already thats an issue i think people get to be old so fast... Other than that game is quite fun and has kind of depth to it if you look into it progressive build game where you set your village to vikingr cove ! Trade & Raid kind of mind after you defend your village and go on to unlock more stuff but in the end there is not a lot of options but still it is fun! Note: Workshop has more build options made by the community itself there are some good stuff i would deff check out. in total I will suggest this game on when it gets to be cheaper %50 discount or something. Also i realized there is DLC in this game made not to long ago but no one buyed it i suppose no review whatsoever... Note: Also devs i think either left the game or they work on something and kept quiet.

Good colony sim, but after 10-20 hours max there is not much point.

Land of the Vikings Review: I've had this game for a few years. Pros: 1. Immersive Viking Setting: Land of the Vikings excels in its immersive portrayal of the Viking world. From the rugged landscapes to the authentic Norse mythology-inspired lore, the game transports players to a rich and engaging setting filled with adventure and exploration. 2. Deep Role-Playing Elements: The game offers deep role-playing elements that allow players to create and customize their own Viking characters. From choosing their appearance and skills to making impactful decisions that shape the story, players have a high level of agency in shaping their Viking saga. 3. Epic Quests and Adventures: Land of the Vikings features a variety of epic quests and adventures for players to embark on. Whether it's raiding enemy settlements, exploring mysterious ruins, or engaging in epic battles against mythical creatures, the game offers a diverse range of exciting challenges to conquer. 4. Dynamic World: The game's world feels dynamic and alive, with various factions vying for power and influence. Players can interact with these factions, form alliances or rivalries, and influence the course of events through their actions, adding depth and re-playability to the experience. 5. Visually Stunning: Land of the Vikings boasts stunning visuals that bring the Viking world to life in vivid detail. From lush forests to snowy mountains, the game's environments are beautifully rendered, immersing players in the rugged beauty of the Norse landscape. Cons: 1. Technical Issues: Despite its visual prowess, Land of the Vikings suffers from technical issues such as bugs, glitches, and performance issues. These issues can detract from the overall experience and lead to frustration for players, especially during intense combat or exploration sequences. 2. Steep Learning Curve: The game has a steep learning curve, especially for players new to the role-playing genre. The sheer depth and complexity of the game's mechanics and systems can be overwhelming at times, requiring patience and persistence to fully grasp and master. 3. Limited Character Customization: While the game offers some degree of character customization, it is relatively limited compared to other role-playing games. Players may find themselves wishing for more options to personalize their Viking characters and make them truly unique. 4. Lack of Polish: Despite its strong core gameplay and compelling setting, Land of the Vikings lacks the polish and refinement of other AAA titles. From awkward animations to clunky UI design, the game feels rough around the edges in certain areas, detracting from the overall immersion and enjoyment. Rating: 7/10 Explanation: Land of the Vikings is a standout title that excels in its immersive setting, deep role-playing elements, and epic quests and adventures. Its visually stunning presentation and dynamic world further elevate the experience, making it a must-play for fans of the Viking genre and role-playing games in general. However, the game is not without its flaws. Technical issues, a steep learning curve, and limited character customization may detract from the overall experience for some players. Despite these shortcomings, Land of the Vikings remains a highly enjoyable and engaging experience that earns it a solid rating of 7 out of 10. Thank you for taking the time to read my review.
