Trust me, there will be plenty of obstacles. Players immediately become enraptured in the fascinating back story, gaining the motivation to persevere through all the obstacles keeping Leko from his place at the table. Pair that with an audio soundtrack that put my spirit directly into the Viking Age and I was dying to throw on that horned helmet and start growing out my beard. Powered by an Unreal 4 engine for some reason, Valhalla’s simplistic animation is, in a word, sublime. That being said, I could never stay mad at the game due to a few redeeming qualities. Though I came in expecting a bit of a struggle for the learning curve, I quickly found out the entire game was an unending, precarious balancing act. While I might have been a veritable veteran in the aspects of virtual survival, it turns out I’m a huge noob when it comes to RTS (Real Time Strategy). Once I got into the real deal mode however, it was a whole different ball game. Pop up a woodcutting stand here, throw a tool shack over there, reel in a couple of fish and I was good to go. The tutorial immediately made me feel like Leko, a true god of builders. Being a veteran of some classic survival games such as Minecraft, Rust or Ark, I thought I had this one in the bag. Putting it plain and simple, this game is tough. Unfortunately, I never gained enough honor to receive that privilege. If deemed worthy by the Allfather, the clan may re-enter the gates of Valhalla and sit with Odin at his table of endless feasting. Now it’s up to the Odinson and a group of ragtag rejects to gain honor in the eyes of their almighty dad by defeating various Ice Giants on a quest back up the mountain. His preference for building over traditional Viking pastimes such as drinking mead, chowing down on some roasted boar, or just plain ol’ heroic conquest has gotten poor Leko banished the Viking’s promised land. Players take on the role of Leko, Odin’s outcast, disappointment of a son. Price: $29.99 $23.99 įrom Funatics, the makers of The Settlers and Cultures series, comes the newest building strategy/survival game: Valhalla Hills.
