Islands of Óðinn

Overview

As a Viking leader, you sail north to colonise a newly discovered archipelago. The primary goal of the game is to colonise more land than any other player. There is a catch, though! After colonising any island, the rival tribes will not allow you to colonise the neighbouring lands, unless they have their own share in this part of the archipelago too.

Mechanics

Players in turns choose an island to colonise. However, in the base game, you cannot colonise an island if at least one of your opponent's owns fewer neighbouring islands than you. This simple mechanic forces players to strategies between colonising the most valuable islands while avoiding giving the opponent too much advantage in the end-game.

Advanced players can additionally use 28 rule modifications that add new game mechanics and provide new challenges. You can organise ale festivals, tame dragons, invade opponents or do all of it at once!

The number of rules combinations is practically endless, and each one will require players to adapt their strategies or even completely change their play style.

Features

The game includes:

• a single-player campaign with 288 unique levels,
• local Co-Op campaign for two players with 144 levels,
• a random scenario generator with a lot of customisation,
• a map editor to design your own scenarios,
• over 30 modifications introducing new mechanics to the game,
• local multiplayer for up to 4 players available in random and custom scenarios.
