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 title transports players to the frozen north, where they assume the role of a Viking leader establishing a new colony.
Familiar Territory for Colossi Fans
Fans of Colossi's previous work will find Vinland Tales instantly recognizable. 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.
Beyond the Basics
Vinland Tales offers a wealth of additional features to keep players engaged. Minigames, guilds, talent trees, quests, and dungeons provide ample content. Cooperative play is also available, allowing players to team up with friends.

A Potential Concern: Depth vs. Speed of Release
The rapid release cycle of Colossi Games' titles is noteworthy. While their ambition to explore diverse settings and eras is commendable, the potential trade-off in depth remains a question. Whether Vinland Tales will carve a significant niche or feel too shallow remains to be seen.
