War camps benefit from being near weapon smiths. For example you want to ensure a woodcutter doesn’t have to walk a long distance to get to trees, a fishery should be near water and hunter near animals. Where you choose to place buildings is important too. Buildings also eventually get optional extensions that you can build next to them to give them extra services.

Other options open up to you including military camps, altars, warehouses, breweries, merchants plus gold and weapon smiths. You’ll want to create a hunter and fishery to keep the food coming as Vikings love to eat. The further you progress the more things you unlock and the game just keeps giving you different options. Alternatively you can go for a peaceful option by offering sacrifices via altars to the guardians. From the second island the portals are guarded so you must train your Vikings in the art of war in order to defeat the guardians to gain entry. With the first island out the way this is where the fun really begins. After learning a few of these basic skills it’s time to jump into the magic portal to head to the next island. As time progresses you eventually learn new skills such as building paths that make it quicker and easier for your Vikings to get around. You can also create huts for your Vikings to live in. Wood is a very important resource that is needed in almost all construction. Your first task is to build a woodcutters hut and then one of your Vikings gets to work chopping down trees. As you summon Vikings they drop from the sky onto the island ready to do your bidding. You start off your quest on a tiny island with a handful of Vikings and few resources. At this early stage the tutorial could still use some work but it is still essential in learning the game. The game has an optional tutorial that I highly recommend you keep turned on. So your job is to lead the Vikings across various islands through magical portals until they reach the portal at the top of a mountain that leads them back to Valhalla. It’s a bit of a bonkers story but it serves its purpose as a backstory for the game. Leko decides to put his construction skills to good use and lead the Vikings back to Valhalla. He decides to exile Leko to earth and appoints him as God of the builders. Odin is annoyed at his son Leko who would rather play with bricks than do the crazy things that Vikings do. However Odin is in a rather bad mood and refuses them entry. Dead Vikings have been arriving at the gates of Azgard to gain entry into Valhalla. If you hadn’t guessed already by the name this is a game based around Vikings. Technically it’s also rather advanced thanks to the developers choosing to build the game on the wonderful Unreal 4 Engine.īefore digging into the gameplay it’s worth mentioning the story behind the game.
However for a game at such an early state I must say it feels rather well polished already. I’ve been lucky enough to spend a few days with a preview build of the game which is an even earlier build than the one that will hit Early Access tomorrow.
