Construct Jaw-Dropping Viking Villages

Houses, workshops, defenses, altars, shipyards, castles, and farms—the design of your village and your economy is in your hands. Each structure is handcrafted in wonderful detail to allow you to construct a functional and visually impressive Viking tribe.

Your Village is Alive

You don’t just construct your village, you live in it. Build, work, and fight alongside your people, walk through the very village you’ve helped build and witness entire production cycles being carried out. For the tribe to function coherently, each individual member must also have their own personal needs met. They have daily schedules, and need rest, food, drink, and companionship to survive. You’re not just building a base—you’re building a living village!

Villagers Play Their Part

Training your villagers will increase their abilities whether in battle or their chosen vocation. Cultivating skilled blacksmiths will benefit your tribe in many ways, while proficient hunters will be able to explore further into the world, gathering additional materials or help feed the tribe more effectively.

Expand and Claim Land

As you conquer more of this world and your tribe expands, your settlement will grow. What starts off as a collection of modest huts, ends up becoming a prosperous village where crops are farmed, towers are raised, and anvils are hammered. Eventually all your followers’ homes will become uniquely decorated, echoing their own individuality.
