Official Description (Ad Blurb)

A battle-slain warrior, the Valkyries have ferried your soul to Valheim, the tenth Norse world. Besieged by creatures of chaos and ancient enemies of the gods, you are the newest custodian of the primordial purgatory, tasked with slaying Odin’s ancient rivals and bringing order to Valheim.

Your trials begin at the disarmingly peaceful centre of Valheim, but the gods reward the brave and glory awaits. Venture forth through imposing forests and snow-capped mountains, explore and harvest more valuable materials to craft deadlier weapons, sturdier armor, viking strongholds and outposts. Build a mighty longship and sail the great oceans in search of exotic lands … but be wary of sailing too far...

Key features:
* Huge procedurally-generated world - explore and inhabit mystical lands, from mysteriousforests to imposing snow-topped mountain ranges and stunning meadows, complete with their own creatures of legend to battle and wildlife to hunt. * Co-op PvE (2-10 players) - - Whether you want to brave the lands alone or venture with trusted allies, Valheim supports independent, player-hosted servers and unlimited world creation. We recommend playing co-op with 3-5 players. * Punishing dodge & block based combat system with a wide range of weapons * Build & sail ships - from flimsy rafts to imposing warships, build legendary vessels to conquer the seas and discover new lands. * Summon and defeat vengeful primordial bosses of myth and legend, and collect trophies to progress and craft new powerful items * Flexible house and base building system - raise mead halls, farms, settlements outposts, castles and more. * Intuitive item crafting - forge the finest weapons and armour, and craft food and mead. * Dedicated server- for players who want to run a persistent server. If you prefer not to run a server on your PC, consider renting a server at G-Portal.

Community-translated languages:
In addition to the officially supported languages, Valheim has several community-translated languages. As the name would suggest these are all translated by fans and members of the community, and is an ongoing process. We can't guarantee the quality nor completeness of any specific translation effort.

The following languages have been partially translated by the community:
* Svenska * Italiano * Romanian * български * македонски * Suomi * Dansk * íslenska * Lietuvių kalba * čeština * Magyar nyelv * Português europeu * 한국어 (불완전한)

RuneScape and Minecraft had a lovechild

The Good
The game is still very much EA/Beta at the time of this review (version 0.148.7), but oh boy, does this game have the potential to be a trend setter!? Getting in the top 50 of best rated games EVER on Steam, as an early access game and in only 3 weeks, that should really say something!

The game takes the best things from RuneScape and makes it 3D, with a bit of Minecraft too... I'm already level 25 in woodcutting!

The Bad
The game has a brutal learning curve.. It's super simple, yet pretty difficult. There's pretty much zero tutorials. You are either going to love it or hate it.

The Bottom Line
Grindy leveling up like RuneScape, except even more stuff to level up in... You even level up your running and jumping skills.

Mixed with the casual mining/crafting and occasional combat from Minecraft...

All in 3D polygon style graphics.
