Vinland Tales takes you to the frozen north to build your own Viking colony in this casual survival release

Vinland Tales: A Viking Survival Adventure from Colossi Games

Colossi Games, creators of popular survival titles Gladiators: Survival in Rome and Daisho: Survival of a Samurai, have launched their latest casual survival game, Vinland Tales. This new adventure transports players to the icy north, where they assume the role of a Viking leader establishing a colony in a harsh, unfamiliar land.

Fans of Colossi's previous work will find a familiar feel. The game utilizes an isometric perspective and low-poly graphics, maintaining a relatively casual approach to survival mechanics. Core gameplay revolves around colony building, clan management, and resource gathering.

Vinland Tales is packed with features, including minigames, guilds, talent trees, quests, and dungeons, ensuring a wealth of content. Cooperative multiplayer allows players to team up with friends to conquer the challenges together.

A Rapid Release Cycle?

One potential concern is Colossi Games' rapid release schedule. While their ambition to explore diverse settings and time periods is evident, the question remains whether this rapid pace compromises the depth of their games. The success of Vinland Tales may hinge on whether it carves out a unique niche or feels too shallow to sustain long-term player engagement.
