Vinland Tales: A New Isometric Survival Experience from Colossi Games
Colossi Games, creators of Gladiators: Survival in Rome and Daisho: Survival of a Samurai, have launched their latest casual survival game, Vinland Tales. This new title transports players to the icy north, where they assume the role of a Viking leader establishing a colony in uncharted territory.
Familiar elements for fans of Colossi Games' previous work are present. The game utilizes an isometric perspective, low-poly graphics, and a relatively relaxed approach to survival mechanics. Gameplay centers around colony building, clan management, and resource gathering.
Beyond the core gameplay loop, Vinland Tales offers a wealth of additional features. Minigames, guilds, talent trees, quests, and dungeons provide ample 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 historical periods is commendable, the question remains whether this approach compromises the depth of their games. The success of Vinland Tales hinges on whether it offers enough engaging content to stand out in a crowded market.
