Vinland Tales: A New Viking Survival Adventure from Colossi Games

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

Familiar elements for fans of Colossi Games' previous work will be readily apparent. The game utilizes an isometric perspective and low-poly graphics, maintaining a relatively relaxed approach to survival mechanics. The core gameplay loop revolves around colony building, clan management, and resource gathering, all crucial for survival.

Vinland Tales is packed with features designed to provide ample content. Players can enjoy minigames, guilds, talent trees, quests, and dungeons. Cooperative gameplay is also available, allowing players to team up with friends and 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 historical periods is evident, this speed might compromise depth. The success of Vinland Tales hinges on whether it can carve out a unique space in the market or if its relatively streamlined design will limit its longevity.
