Sonderland has been on a roll with their quirky game releases, and I'm excited to share the latest news about their new title, Landnama – Viking Strategy RPG. As the name suggests, this game plunges you into the challenging world of a Viking chieftain striving to establish a life in medieval Iceland. Unlike typical city builders, Landnama offers a unique twist on the genre.
Life is Tough in Landnama – Viking Strategy RPG!
The core challenge in Landnama is surviving the brutal Icelandic winters with the help of a single, vital resource called Heart. This resource is the lifeline of your Viking clan, essential for every aspect of construction, upgrades, and survival. Landnama blends strategy with puzzle elements, focusing on nurturing your Viking community rather than engaging in combat. You'll send your clan to explore, strategically build in optimal locations, and manage resources to keep everyone warm and alive.
The game's pacing is brisk and engaging, complemented by soothing visuals that enhance the overall experience. If you're curious about what Landnama looks like, take a moment to watch the launch trailer below:
So, How Do You Make it Through the Bone-Chilling Winters?
Surviving the harsh winters hinges on your management of the Heart resource. You'll need to decide whether to invest in expanding your settlement, which consumes Hearts, or focus on hunting to build up your reserves for the cold months ahead. Choosing fertile land for building can be advantageous, but be prepared to face the unique challenges each terrain presents. If you enjoy games like Northgard and Catan, Landnama is definitely worth exploring. You can find it on the Google Play Store.
