Historically, the Vikings were real allrounders: ingenious explorers, merchants, fighters and sailors. They understood, much better than any other people at that time - the art of economics. From their trading centers in the Baltic Sea, Birka and Haithabu they sailed the seas and developed extensive trade routes from Russia to the Mediterranean.
The game considers all aspects of Vikingism in a fantastic and realistic 3D world - trade, economics, and combat to a degree that may have been in the real life of a Viking.
Goal is to build a robust economic system with a flourishing maritime trade under realistic climatic and seasonal conditions. Only with the income of your island production, the merchandising and the reward of fullfilled tasks - you’re able to fulfill the claims of your lord - Thorvaldson.
But apart from the harsh climate and other bad circumstances, the multitude of enemies are the biggest threat to your prosperity and your life. As a loyal swordsman of Thorvaldson, you will receive guard troops and can protect your village with massive weapons. Protection that you need to defend you properties and inhabitants.
More information about the game:
- The figures, the calendar and the seasons are largely based on historical traditions and geographical conditions.
- The game time is divided so that 1 hour real time = 1 day in the game. This results in a varied and long playing time, in which daily work takes place under realistic and changing weather conditions and seasons.
The game also contains a puzzle component, i.e. You had to find ways, materials, and weapons, as well as start mechanisms, before you could use them.
