Recommended: Like mead in winter and therapy in summer—absolutely This game is like building IKEA furniture during a blizzard—with real Norse consequences. You came here for calm city-building. You stayed because wolves ate your lumberjack, your healer froze to death, and your chief blacksmith fell in love with a fisherman and refused to work until the stars aligned. Let me tell you about Astrid the Bone-Harp Maker. She wasn’t part of any tutorial. She just… showed up. One of those random villagers with no stats, weird hobbies, and a smile that somehow said “I’ve buried people.” She was my town’s weird aunt energy. Built a harp out of whale bones, played it at festivals, and once stopped a raid by singing a song so haunting the raiders just… left. She didn’t fight. She didn’t farm. But when people died—frostbite, famine, flying debris from my poorly placed watchtower—she lit a candle and told stories that made grief feel less lonely. Then came The Great Collapse. You know the one—blizzard, no firewood, four raids in two seasons, and someone accidentally sacrificing the village goat. We were down to 8 villagers. Astrid, already sick, left the longhouse one night. Said nothing. Next morning, we found her in the center of town, harp in her lap, frozen fingers on the strings. Around her: firewood, food, healing herbs. She had climbed the hill, raided the storehouse alone, and left her warmth behind so the rest of us could live. My chieftain called her a “low-value villager” in the stats. I called her the heart of the village. I rebuilt. Named the tavern after her. Every festival, I hear the harp in the soundtrack and pretend it’s her. The raids still come. The storms still howl. But Astrid made sure we remembered why we endure. Land of the Vikings isn’t just a city builder. It’s a Norse mood simulator. A place where snow, fire, and humanity wrestle like gods—and sometimes your only currency is memory. Final Verdict: 10/10. Would mismanage winter again, sob over a bone harp, and name my next chieftain “Astrid’s Legacy.” Skål.

Like Manor Lords but easier to understand. Plus, it has a complete tutorial on how everything works. The aesthetics are good. Unfortunately, it doesn't really have actual combat mechanics. It has more of an RNG table top combat system where you weigh your forces against theirs and pick some tactical actions you want to make. Otherwise, it is a solid economy/town building simulator, and it really reminds me a lot of Dawn of Man.

It is a another good city-building strategy game. I love this style games. Pros: Beautiful Art Style and Atmosphere Customization and Freedom Historical and Mythological Themes Replayability Cons: Learning Curve Limited Combat Depth Bugs

Feb. 2025

Not sure what people are upset about. The game is clearly an indie game that is its a bit rough around the edges in many places that said it does work, I had no crash issues or similar in my play-through so far. Its pretty, the mechanics are interesting enough that I will be back but ya its well worth the price, its no City Skylines or Anno but its also not trying to be I don't think. Its just a very solid colony sim with a Nordic theme and a few interesting but not ground breaking little features. would recommend.

It's fun, but there's not enough content to justify it unless you buy it while it's on sale.
