Laps Games and Iceberg Interactive have unleashed city-building strategy Land of the Vikings from the Early Access. The game is now available on Steam in the full release version.
“Land of the Vikings is a survival colony sim game. Lead your village and expand it into a thriving city. A wise Jarl must manage resources, survive harsh conditions, and guide their fellow Vikings to work together through social conflict.”
