Über das Spiel

Krieger bleiben Krieger auch nach dem Tod. Begebe dich auf den Weg zu der letzten Herausforderung und beweise dich bei den Göttern. Im Leben hattest du nie Angst vor Kälte, Dunkelheit oder Tod, und du wirst dich auch jetzt nicht fürchten. Versorge dich mit Proviant und Ausrüstung und entschlüssle die Geheimnisse dieser Länder.

Werde unvergesslich
Zerstöre jeden, der es wagt, deine Länder anzugreifen. Jeder gefallene Feind bringt dich Asgard näher! Knochen, Zähne, Fell - nutze alles als deine Waffen und Rüstung. Baue eine Festung, die dich vor feindlichen Angriffen schützt und dir dabei hilft, die Angreifer zu vernichten. Die Todespriester werden dir Ultimaten stellen. Wirst du ihre Befehle befolgen oder ablehnen und dich dem Kampf gegen ihre toten Diener stellen?

Finde einen Ausweg
Sammle alle Teile des Portals nach Asgard. Aber sei vorsichtig - diese werden von mächtigen Riesen, Untoten und tödlichen Spinnen streng bewacht.

Fertige die verschiedensten Gegenstände
Braue verschiedene Tränke aus Pilzen und töte wilde Tiere, um stärker zu werden. Koche die besten Gerichte, um alle deine Freunde zu versorgen. Braue Gift, das noch den mächtigsten Troll töten wird.

Erforsche die uralte Höhlen
Erreiche den Mittelpunkt der Welt, wo du mächtige Artefakte findest, die dir helfen auch im letzten Kampf zu siegen. Finde heraus, was in der Dunkelheit verborgen ist.

Ist ganz nett gemacht. Oldschool. Doch die Suche nach dem Drachen Ahnherr war mir persönlich dann doch zu anstrengend, da man die Minen und andere Dungeons zigg mal machte und doch nichts fand. Für Zwischendurch ganz ok. Kauft es im Angebot!

Na nu was ist das denn? Mmh könnte etwas sein.....
Definitiv ein Geheimtipp, bin per Zufall darauf gestoßen

+ muss man verstehen, dann ist es nicht zu schwer
+ logisch aufgebaut
+ interessante Verbindung von bauen, kämpfen und aufleveln
+ Grafik, schöner Zeichenstil
+ alle Errungenschaften erreichbar (mit DLC Odins Blessing auf jeden Fall)

Negativ?
mir fällt nicht wirklich was ein (wenn man die Spielmechanik verstanden hat sorgt man vor)

Am ehesten würde ich Niffelheim mit Kingdoms: Classic/New Lands vergleichen, allerdings bedient sich Kingdom grafisch an Pixelart, was meiner subjektiven Meinung nach die bessere Entscheidung für diese Art Titel ist.
Das nordische Setup wirkt recht interessant, wurde aber nur sehr bescheiden umgesetzt. Der Titel selbst geht in wenige Texten auf die Mythologie ein, dass man es auch hätte sein lassen können.

Nun zu den wichtigen Dingen: Inhaltlich ist man durchaus ein paar Stunden beschäftigt und anfänglich wirkt auch alles komplex und recht schwer. Hat man jedoch die ersten paar Stunden hinter sich und Waffen und Rüstungen auf ein entsprechendes Niveau gebracht. wirken alle Gegner inklusive der Mini-Bosse und dem Endgegner, als wären sie Schießbudenfiguren auf dem Jahrmarkt. Dadurch wird das Spiel sehr schnell langweilig, denn eine wirkliche Herausforderung bietet es ab diesem Zeitpunkt nicht mehr. Man ist nur noch damit beschäftigt, die Wellen pünktlich abzuwehren, da die Festung alleine dazu nicht in der Lage ist und nach Rohstoffen zu suchen. Klar. in anderen Spielen dieser Art ist es nicht anders, allerdings ist dort das Balancing um ein Vielfaches anspruchsvoller.
Abbau und Verbrauch der Resourcen sind in einer sehr schlechten Relation: Hochwertige Abbauwerkzeuge verlangen entsprechend hochwertige Resourcen, arbeiten sich aber maximal doppelt so schnell durch härtere Rohstoffe, verbrauchen sich aber genau so schnell, also warum sollte man den Aufwand betreiben die Hochwertigen zu bauen, wenn man damit die wichtigen Rüstungen und Waffen anfertigen kann?
Wo wir gerade bei Rüstungen und Waffen sind: Das Verbessern der Waffen ist der einzig positive Aspekt, was den Aufwand/Nutzen angeht.
Selbst die unterschiedlichen Rüstungen sind relativ nutzlos bis auf eine, die im Schnitt besser ist als alle anderen. Warum sollte ich eine Rüstung anfertigen, die auf etwas spezialisiert ist, wenn der Effekt nur in sehr spezifischen Situationen von Nutzen ist und diese in Relation zu einer im Durchschnitt besseren, dann auch noch so einen marginalen Effekt hat?
Hört sich alles schlimmer an als es ist. Für mich allerdings war das Erlebnis so, als würde ich in einem Fast-Food-Restaurant essen, und zwar die Umverpackung. Zum Glück gab es einen hohen Preisnachlass und man hat mir versichert. dass die Umverpackung nicht giftig sei...

Fazit: Schnell auf den Sidescrolling Survival Zug aufgesprungen, durch käuflich zu erwerbende Youtuber gehyped und dann ein Spiel abliefern, das im besten Fall durchschnittlich ist. Das macht man ja heutzutage gerne so. Für 60 % Rabatt kann man es sich ruhig mal gönnen, wenn man auf diese Art Spiel steht und alles andere durch hat.

Guten Tag meine Lieben,

nach langer Überlegung habe ich mich dazu entschieden diesem Game einen negativen Review zu geben.

Von außen betrachtet macht dieses Game erstmal einen stabilen Eindruck und eignet sich gut um man ein bisschen gemütlich zu daddeln.

Gerade der Anfang ist auch recht schwierig, was Laune macht, da der Survivel-Charakter mit der Sattheit am Anfang ein echtes Problem darstellt.

Doch je weiter man kommt, desto mehr kristallisiert sich heraus, dass das Game zu über 80% nur aus farmen und craften besteht, was das ganze absurd in die Länge zieht.

Die eigentliche Story ist sehr simpel und kurz, wird aber durch alles andere in die Länge gezogen.

Selbst sein Leben zu regenerieren dauert immer eine Ewigkeit.

Deshalb muss ich es leider negativ bewerten, weil es ab einem gewissen Zeitpunkt eifnach nur nerft, weil man auch weiterkommen möchte.

Das Game dann auch noch auf 100% zu spielen ist ebenfalls einfach nur Grind, selbst nachdem man die Story komplett durchgespielt hat.

Die Steuerung ist oftmals recht buggy und er macht Sachen, die man gar nicht angeklickt hat.

Auch der Soundtrack ist sehr eintönig und fällt oftmals einfach für einige Minuten komplett aus.

Wenn das Game mal im Angebot sein sollte ok, aber ansonsten kann ich das echt nicht empfehlen.

Lg, SyS

Mixed. While there are many materials in this game, the items, crafting, and overall gameplay still feels quite simplistic. Animations are slow, which adds to the feeling of needing to grind too much. There seem to be a few minor bugs. For example, one of the trap types continues to work despite depleting its durability.

Crafting and upgrading are painless and a welcome change from most games. You do not necessarily need items in your character's personal inventory, as long as they are stored (such as back at your home base) you can utilize them.

I enjoyed my time playing, but beneath the surface this is a shallow experience with some RPG, hack 'n slash, and exploration elements, along with too much repetition. Additionally, the final two achievements are boring (kill 1000 skeletons and kill 100 enemies with your Dragon).

Fun for maybe 4 hours. Viking style side-scrolling adventure game. Unfortunately, for some reason hostile mobs scale with how much you progress through the game so even while your gear improves it doesn't feel like you are. If you start a new game the world maintains scaling from previous game, making it unplayable.

So it is a dungeon crawler with crafting survivor elements. I played 8 hours so far, half was mining, the other half was gathering with some combat. Combat is simple as it is. No combos or something interesting to do. Block - hit - hit, block - hit - hit. Or run and gun.
It's just boring. There is no way to farm resources besides gathering, you can't craft without crafting stations, so you need to run back every time when you run out of tools, which is often.

If you have 20+ hours of really nothing to do and want a simple game, go ahead, for everybody else, just play Don't Starve

Overall, it's not too bad, but probably not everyone's cup of tea.

GOOD:
- Pretty art style with some gorgeous scenery.
- Many resources to collect and a great deal of crafting to do.
- Four different characters to choose from with different perks/attributes.
- A main base to develop with various upgrades and extensions.
- A variety of enemies to fight that change both in level and appearance as you progress in the game.
- Harvestable resources all seem to respawn in new places within their environments which gives the feeling of an organic, changing world.
- Ores in the mine are replenished every now and then via an 'earthquake' mechanic which randomises and fills in the mineable sections of the mine. I thought this was a clever way to do it.

NEUTRAL:
- Trapping works in a humorous manner. Rather than laying a trap and waiting for an animal to walk into it, you can just charge at an animal and place a trap on top of it once you are in range. This will trap the creature instantly. You also seem able to place a trap on top of a bush/hole where one is hiding which will also capture them instantly.
- Quests consist of either 'fetch quests' or nuggets of lore. I don't mind this, but if you don't like fetch quests, you won't have a good time.
- Prices for selling items to the merchant are not affected by item degradation, e.g. you can sell a nearly used up sword for the same price as a brand new one. This is good for you, but it seems a bit odd that the merchant would pay the same price.

BAD:
- The crafting menus could use some refining. There is no 'Create X' option for crafting materials, e.g. If you need to create 30 planks for something, you'll have to sit at your saw bench and click to create planks a heap of times. EDIT: It turns out clicking on the 'Craft' button is slow, but if you spam-press 'E' to craft, you can craft items quickly.
- There is no search function or item filters for the crafting menu. You usually have to do some scrolling to find the item(s) you want to make. Craftable items can jump around a bit too depending on whether you have the materials to craft something. It seems to be sorted based on tier and then availability to craft.
- Character movement doesn't always stop straight away when you release the movement keys. Admittedly, I got used to this after a while.
- Collectible objects sometimes spawn in inaccessible places, e.g. mushrooms on the floor of the mine where walls are in the way.
- Combat is rather simplistic. You can switch between ranged and melee modes and go into a shield stance, but besides that, you just hold down the attack key and tank the damage until things are dead.
- Monster targeting can be annoying sometimes. If you have 2+ enemies standing on top of one another and you want to target the weaker/high priority target, you will have to move away, hope they move forward, and that you target the weaker one when you re-attack. Otherwise you just need to put up with taking more damage.

What to expect:
- very shallow combat (damage vs defence and health is pretty much the entire depth of it)
- poor UX (from inconsistent input scheme to lots of unnecessary running)
- laughable RPG aspect (a handful of skills, neither of which you choose, with scarcely explained effects and questionable value)

My advice:
take it for no less than $10. Yes - no less - meaning that if somebody pays you at least that much to play it, well, do what you gotta do.

Already feeling grindy at 1.2 hours in.

Id love to give this game a in between thumb review.
Graphics 10/10 i love the art and animation so much that i almost gave a thumbs up for it alone.

But due to slow game progression and clunky movement it had to be a negative review :(
Also the controls feel so simple like this is meant to be a phone game, not a pc game.

This is one of those games where it's definitely not for me, but it's not an awful game by any means. I just don't think I would recommend it.

Pros:

-I love the art style of Niffelheim. The opening screen is especially gorgeous.
-The concept is unique. I love the idea of a survival game based around ascending to Vallhala

Cons:

-It is VERY grindy. I know some people really like that type of game, but it’s personally something that I never really get into.
-The tutorial could use a little fleshing out. It essentially teaches you the basic controls and lets you roam free. I personally would like a little more explanation of what the goals are.
-Your early game mistakes WILL come back to haunt you. I think this falls under something I don’t personally like but others might be okay with. For example, my club broke early on. I needed to kill a wolf for fangs but I could not kill a wolf because I had no club. I had to resort to going to the wiki and using a guide to get through the first couple days.

If you’re into grindy, no holds barred beatdown style game, maybe check this out while it’s on sale.

I can't describe to you on the internet exactly how the atmosphere, setting, art style, and overall mood of this game make me feel. Tranquil, but with conviction. ok so i lied, i could describe it on the internet. anyway, it's a grindy kind of game, but if that's something you dig in controlled amounts then you're gonna like this one.

I dont like to leave bad reviews. This game made me lose my mind. I like the environment. Everything else is super hard. The more pieces I collect to open the portal to Asgard, the super hard the bosses become. I was barely 460HP and the bosses are all 20000HP. The best weapon I created makes the enemy lose 43HP per hit. I played 42 hours and again impossible to finish.

I really like the art style for the game but the mechanics itself are seriously lacking in polish. The level of grind needed feels like the developers were trying to bulk out the length of the game but lacked a clear direction on how to do it well.

I'll enjoy playing through it, but it will be a little at a time as the grind can be soul crushing. Definitely not something I would recommend to others.

It goes from interesting and fun, to completely tedious and boring, the crafting is awful, every fight is the same, block, hit, hit block and repeat, the dragon is useless.
I dunno how fun it would be with pvp and playing with all the clans full of players, but as coop game playing on only 1 clan is boring after the first 2 hours.

Strange game. The concept is OK, the survival-sandbox idea but the execution doesn't look very good. The game is very slow, there is a lot of tedious inventory management and the need of constant collection of items scattered around the world, the crafting system is kinda of cryptic and not very friendly to new players. The mechanics are boring and the goals aren't clear, random quests keep popping just as dungeon locations always shrouded by mystery and unexpected challenges that might kill you very quickly. I'm not completely sure if this is a good game or not but it's certainly not my cup of tea.

This game has a nice look to, i like the art style which is why i purchased it.
The game does have a nice style too it and I only played it solo.

The exploration in this game isn't that fun
The base building isn't that fun
The mining, well its mining hold E and it does it all for you
The crafting stations are too far apart and you move really slow
The combat just isn't fun at all

Is repetitive and gets boring quickly doing the same chores over and over again with no real rewards for it. If you want to try it, get it at sales. It's not worth anything near the €15-20 interval.

No matter how much it has going for it in terms of mechanics, style, etc. somehow all of it manages to just be tedious and straight-up not fun. Watch gameplay before purchasing. I could see this game being fun to a very tight niche of people but ultimately I think most will get bored quickly.

I want to love this game.
But in the end the hunger got to me.
99% of the game is trying not to get hungry.
If the food items gave more satiety it would make this game playable.
But right now no matter how much food I eat, a few swings of the pick in the mines and blam hungry again.
The rest of the game is pretty good but you can't enjoy any of it because you are always hungry.

Got it in a Humble Choice. The game is not bad necessarily, but there is too much focus on farming/grinding for materials to maintain and improve gear. And when you do improve gear all you get is improved stats. No interesting gear, effects or mechanics like in Terraria, other than basic damage over time (bleed) and short stuns.

Food in the beginning is very hard to come by, because you spend a while hunting and gathering so you can make a meal that fills you up for 2%, and that is gone after 30 seconds. The only way to stay on top of satiation is to find the merchant and buy pumpkin pies, which are 20x more filling than what you can make at the start (and 7x what you can make at the end), for only 4x the price (so sell 4 meals and buy a pie). Weapons, armor and tools also degrade very quickly, similar to stone tools in Minecraft, and they are not all that easy to craft. Shields in particular wear out after 8 hits. After you get further in the game that gets solved, with longer lasting gear and kits that you find in chests that can partially repair, but it's still pretty annoying.

Combat is very shallow and clunky. The things I can say are good are the graphics and setting, so give it a try if you really like the screenshots, but unfortunately due to the shallow gameplay I cannot really recommend it.

Basically the game consists of you slowing walking from left to right then right to left, collecting materials and engaging in a very weak combat system (just two buttons, block and attack).

Even tasks like crafting become labourious as hell as you have to walk between crafting stations at a snails pace.

There are better games in the same genre so I can't recommend this one.

It's a really good game with collecting of resources, building/improving structures, hunting animals, defending against hordes of dead skeletons, Oh and I forgot to mention it's based of norse mythology. It's a really good survival game. (Thumbs up)

There are 3 different keys (Space, E and Q) to pick up items and a few more for combat. Clunky controls and bad combat mechanics. Grindy, boring game where all you do is pick up items and go left and right and back to the same place and change screen and keep doing the same thing over and over again. Monsters appear to scale to your level (which you level up by picking up loot or mining, etc) but they do it much faster than you. I keep being 3-shotted using the best equipment in the game. And when you die (which you will, at almost every encounter) you lose money and drop an equipment item.
The loot pop-up messages on the right side is so small (and light-green color on bright background) I cannot see what I pickup. Nothing is explained and the story is horrible. It's also riddled with bugs and typos.
I've had to speedhack to make this grind less boring.
How does this game have so many good reviews? Watch gameplays on youtube before buying.

Your typical survival game collect 200 wood, upgrade this to level 1, collect 300 woods, upgrade this to level 2 and so on. Eventually you gonna max it out, but gameplay will stay the same.It's your choice if doing that is fun. I sunk around 5 hours in it already, but there's little reason to continue further. Gonna watch the ending on youtube and call it a day.

This game review score is vastly more than it deserves, should be about 55%

+ vikings
+ Ambience / Graphics

- everything in this game is just to tick a list
- Awful shallow combat system
- bad animations
- bad game play and responsiveness
- bad User Interface and annoying Inventory management system
- ridiculous need to eat constantly , its not a matter of difficulty but of bad game design
--- dubious developer : Create a Problem , sell the Solution (DLC: easy difficulty setting --> less need for eating and such...)
- bad game design , just mashing up kingdom with survival without thinking how and why

An addictive Viking gathering simulator only good for gathering and nothing else. All other aspects of this game were a let-down. I got this game on sale, but after going in-depth with gameplay and understanding what I bought, I can't recommend it for its default price; it doesn't deserve it.

Beautiful hand-drawn art style, but the animations look like they came from early Flash. I like the idea the developer had for what they were trying to do, and the world has potential for interesting story, but it wasn't strong enough to stand on its own or to overcome the unimaginative game itself.

Less interactive and varied than other similar survival crafting games. Unimaginative and repetitive combat. Railroaded crafting. Missing obvious quality-of-life features (such as crafting multiple items or display for durability).

If you're looking for a survival crafting game, you're better off with earlier titles like Terraria or Starbound.

More you play, more you have too farm resources, at the beggining it can be fun when you are discovering new things and mechanics. But when you are getting more used to the game you can see only the flaws of this grind. Best part of this game is graphic and first hours of playing it.

Not fun in Singleplayer on PC. A lot of resource collection in a very repetitive loop amplified by the durability of tools being extremely short. Doesn't feel like you're making progress if whatever youve crafted just falls apart. The tutorial is basically just a readme, and then the combat is eh.

tl;dr Only worth playing if you buy the DLCs, which you shouldn't do unless you got the game for free because the dev wants to loot goblin your wallet over stuff that should be in the base game.

=====

The Good
-Art style is really nice
-Good atmosphere

The Bad
-All of your equipment breaks if you breathe on it too hard
-The above is true for the equipment that you need to gather the resources to make better equipment (which still falls apart like a Chinese motorcycle)
-Your character probably has a family of tapeworms in their guts, 'cause they need to eat like Billy the Fridge just to not starve
-The best weapons in the game are super underwhelming, so in addition to [strike]toiling in the gulag[/strike] mining and gathering resources for far too long to make that equipment (which, again, will break more easily than the skeleton of someone with boneitis falling down a flight of stairs), you have to also gather a bunch of ingredients (including some you have to fight powerful bosses to obtain) to make a bunch of potions that give temporary damage boosts to actually be able to, for example, one-shot a wolf with a literal cannon firing explosive-packed cannonballs. That's not even a joke, by the time I got that cannon (the mythic one), wolves (not like special boss wolves, mind, just the kind that spawn on the surface at night) had over 300HP, and without potions the best ammo deals about 74 damage/shot (around 160 on a crit) as the Berserker (who has the highest base damage bonus) and both Hunter and Warrior skills maxed.

The Ugly
-Rather than just adding some gameplay options players can fiddle around with to make the game better (y'know, like how good survival games like 7 Days to Die or Conan Exiles do), dev decided to sink to a level of scumminess even AAA publishers rarely stoop to by making you pay for DLC that's just prefab settings adjustments that make the game not suck harder than a thirsty vampire giving a bj.
-No, the fact that early access players got them free does not make it better. If the base game was good and the DLC just added to it, then yeah, okay, fine, I don't care if the early supporters get it free and everyone else has to pay for it. But if you're charging $20 for the base game, nobody should have to pay anything at all just for some minor settings tweaks to make the game actually worth playing.

=====

All I can say is that I'm glad I got this through Humble Bundle, because paying $20 for this? This game that, while it looks beautiful and has great ambiance, is one of the most tedious and unfun games I've ever played? A game where you have to pay for DLC that exists solely to make changes to the base game to make it not trash when most of those changes could have (and should have) just been options in the base game because I guess the dev would rather squeeze that little extra bit of cash out of players wanting to actually enjoy the game rather than not be scummy?

If I'd payed $20 for this, I'd refund it and not touch it until both of the DLCs were either made free for everyone, or just removed and replaced with options when starting a new game in the base game to change things like durability (ranging from the base game's 'even the best equipment may as well be made out of cardboard, saltines and envelope adhesive' to 'actually balanced and fair considering how much time goes into gathering the resources' to 'no durability system because it's not fun to deal with anyway'), satiety from food (from base game's 'I need to eat like 6+ massive slabs of top-tier cooked meat that's probably equivalent to like 9001 total calories to be full for a short time' to 'One massive slab of top-tier cooked meat is roughly enough to fill up'), day/night length, enemy spawn rates, etc.

Pure grind. The crafting inventory is large enough that I feel like I need to take notes to keep track of what I want to build versus what I'm able to build so one ends up crafting unnecessary stuff that takes up storage slots. Then, I need to go back out and search for stuff that I wasted on unnecessary builds. And that search is very random. Bottom line, this game is a time sink with not much payoff.

It seemed like an OK game at first.. My first problem was that, there is no a clue where should you go or what to do.. you are just thrown into the middle of an area. After I realized that, I started to gather stuff for crafting and building. It was alright.. a little bit meh.. but OK. I killed skeletons with 1 hit and then I met a wolf which has killed me with no chance to survive because even the shield was a piece of crap against it.. and it couldn't be killed with even 12 hits... this is just nonsense.

However I liked the art style of it, that's not enough for me to recommend the game, because I was not entertained.

Would have been okay if all of your resources didn't get plundered all the time when your castle is destroyed. Kind of makes it hard to build yourself back up again, the plundering starts all over again. As one other poster said, would have been a great game.

So the games about looking for materials, building/upgrade buildings, crafting/creating, and killing. Your tools, weapons, and gear all wear down and degrade from use. Enemies attacking most days/nights with a big wave every 7th day or so. You have 2 worlds, One on top where food, animals, and tree's live. The other is below where you mine, kill, and loot chests. Your character gains xp from doing any interaction i.e chop a tree down. The more xp, the bigger the life you have. If you die, the enemies loot some of your storage items. Once you return to your body, you will have a x1 negative on your character. Which is something like -25 percent reduced stats roughly. Your able to remove this negative from making a potion.

Bugs - Enemies would freeze/standstill. They'd go invisible and attack. Day 40+ i couldnt damage the enemies more then 1 damage per hit.


THERE IS NO PAUSE BUTTON.

This is not a top quality game. It is also not what it seems to be on the surface, which makes it look like a sort of 2D Soulslike.
Despite the nice art style, this is mainly a poor mans, very one dimensional Terraria.
In part this feels like a flash game.

Movement is simple left to right and entering doors. Combat is bad, it has no impact, blocking seems useless, you just stand there and exchange blows with enemies.

Less recipes, less content. Movement is no fun, slow and sluggish, and as mentioned before just left to right and enter doors. Half of the game plays itself. just hold the corresponding button and the character does the thing.

Many little details seem to be missing polish, like if you use a controller why is there no one click button to push single items stacks from the inventory into the chests, you can't really see if your castles turrets shoot the arrows you made and it also doesn't look like they do any damage even on the easiest enemies.

The design also is a bit weird, buildings are rather more icons, when you are defending your castle you don't really feel like it because of that, you just stand in front of some icons.

Most of all, and that is always the biggest sin a game can do, it is rather boring.
Within my playtime i found myself drifting off while fighting, while collecting resources, while whacking trees or mining underground.

Other games of this ilk demand attention when you do these things and pull you also much more into their world and gameplay.

I don't think it is bad in a technical sense, it had no bugs and ran absolutely fine, it look interesting for the first few moments. But after a very short time the game gets rather boring and well uninteresting.
No part of the gameplay actually makes me want see more of it.

A mediocre survival game. The art is well-done, and probably the biggest selling point, although I'm not a fan of the character design. Gameplay is tedious and uninspired. There's something of a story to it, but questlines are difficult to follow and just end abruptly with no indication of whether or not they'll pick up again.

It's fine, but I wouldn't recommend it over the many other survival games out there.

Niffelheim is a promising Viking themed 2D openworld/crafting/survival game ruined by design choices.

Pros:
+ Artwork looks cool at start. Atmosphere and backgrounds look superb.
+ Full controller support (tried it with steam controller and works fine)
+ Promising start, looks like having many things to meddle at first hour.

Cons:
- Grinding. And not in a fun way, you have to do same things over and over and over, visit the same places over and over...
- Repetitive. When you shake the charm of the first ten minutes, you'll realize sooner or later, everything is same entire game... Same dungeon layouts, same enemies, same quests...
- Very low variety. Enemies, crafting, maps etc. Everything is lazy.
- Shallow to non-existent story except you are a well drawn but badly animated viking who tries to reach Valhalla.
- Zero tutorial and guiding, this can be a off point for unexperienced gamers.

Final:

3/10

Another missed opportunity as a game that could be great but ruined by design choices. Full with aimless, uninspired and boring grinding, a bore-fest repetitive viking themed mess packed as a game...

If this is the only game on your computer, you have endless time and patience, yea this game is for you. I played it for 4 hours and youd think i wouldnt be bored in 4 hours... oh...my...god.. i wish i could get those 4 hours back. the 3 dollar sale should include the DLCs. You know what? like props to devs, at least they made a game; however, bro come on!! what the hell is up with all the boring grind? i had to set a macro for mining. Inventory is like running low so you have to constantly keep teleporting etc, maps are all very similar. at least let me get some bot troops or something. There is NO diversity, the bosses are always the same , the enemies are the same, you have these doors supposed to make it easier to travel in mines but annoying becaue you still have to travel through each level. Alot of potential, very lack of story. Add like some water or something seamonsters maybe, the maps are SOOOOOOOOO boring

Story is , youre a sad lonely viking doing random stuff trying to go to asgard or something. If i was that viking i woulda just killed myself, such a boring life.

anyway my two cents, good luck

in general i have enjoyed the game, but just at a point when i started getting mythic item upgrades the game became so difficult bosses started 5 shooting me ...
could use a bit more RPG elements, some skill trees/points, other than just flat health increase ...
and at one point the game bugged out and i was not able to open any chests in a dungeon with trolls until i went further down, the game loaded more levels and then it was fine again, but that was when i started getting the mythic upgrades so its probably what caused me to not be able to kill bosses anymore

would be a recomndation if it was not for those major issues

The old and wise Varangian Nurdal Leather Bag was the only one who didn't try anything. Silently, he kept grabbing everything that was on the table and putting it into a leather bag that he had on him just for such an occasion.
~Mikhail Uspensky



Ah, yes... me and Russian games. The story continues... It's not like I didn't try to like this one. As usual, I did my best. And Niffelheim? It sure looks great. I mean, sure, the story is barely there. This game is yet another example of the “have no idea about the setting and script – just use the Norse mythology because people love vikings” principle. But visuals? Those are sure charming. The problems start, as usual, with gameplay.

Don't get me wrong, though. Technically, Niffelheim doesn't feel that bad. Technically, this game is totally playable. When you'll begin playing it, you won't feel bad at all. Most likely, you'll want to keep playing. So, what's wrong? Well, as usual with Russian games, it's one thing, or another. With Niffelheim, the problem is that... it's a very limited experience. Very, very limited experience. Here's an example – in this game there are only five enemy types. And only four of them you'll meet on regular basis. Four maps. One city. And that's pretty much it.

But OK, let's not judge by the numbers (see, I do try to give this game a chance). Maybe it's one of those short, yet charming games that are hard not to love? Well................ no. See, Niffelheim is one of those side-scrolling grinding games, in which you walk around, grind for stuff and build up your castle. In other words, you'll need to spend at least ten hours here in order to get to the ending (which is really poor and totally not worth it, by the way). Ten hours, during which you'll kill the same four enemies again and again, plant some vegetables (Harvest Moon, b***s!), craft some stuff and... that's pretty much it. For ten... freakin'... hours.

The dungeons here are so dull that you'll want to cry. You go down. You kill enemies (yep, the same four enemies, plus some really poor bosses which feel more like big fat versions of the regular guys). You collect loot. The end. No puzzles, no labyrinths, no even the most basic locked doors and keys. Nothing. And if you'll get tired of it (trust me, you will), there's also a mine. A mine, in which you'll use your pickaxe on some rocks to get ore. Repeat 99999+ times. Because you'll need to get deep to get better stuff.

And it's not just a way to waste some time, or improve your stats / buildings. See, in Niffelheim grinding is the only way to get to the end. And talking about getting to the end, it's a pretty confusing process. Even though there are only two NPCs involved (see? It's a very limited game), it's somewhat hard to understand what should you do in order to win. Like I've already said, though, the only thing you actually need to do here is to grind. A lot. You kill enemies in dungeons, you collect stuff for one NPC and you craft stuff for another. That's pretty much it. The only reason for that is to make you kill, collect and craft pretty much everything this game has to offer. Sure, there isn't much, but since your character walks way too slow and your inventory is very limited... it just takes time. A lot of it.

Naturally, when I look back at all that, I can't find any way to give this game a thumb up. With more story and more content? Niffelheim would totally have a chance. It looks really nice and it doesn't feel that bad. Can't say that core mechanics here is good, but... you know how it is. It isn't bad either. It's fine. It's just... with close to no proper story, no proper bosses, no interesting exploration (and almost no places to explore), no entertaining dungeons and no addicting monster hunting with tons of different enemies that require different tactics? It's starting to get boring in, like, ten minutes. And after that? It's just a chore. Dixi.

No depth, complexity, or any compelling reason to explore the world and pursue objectives. Looking for resources is tedious and crafting isn't really exciting since every upgrade is just bigger numbers. Art looks pretty nice I guess. Do Not Buy.

Niffelheim doesn't really give you much in the way of an introduction, it points you to the tutorial section and let's you loose into the world. This is probably part of the reason I stuck with it as long as I did, trying to work out what worked and what didn't along with upgrading my castle.

I enjoyed myself a fair bit throughout my play time and managed to get into a good rhythm of harvesting and mining. Overall the game is slow to do everything which began to drag things down a little bit here and there. Not too bad but not amazing either, then I began to reach the end of the game and everything just stopped. There was a massive spike in enemy difficulty where I could just brute force my way through enemies I now needed to block and attack. A bit late in the game to introduce tactics but it worked, I had the highest level of craftable items in the game no big deal.

Sadly that is where I began to turn on the game. Bosses now hit you with their effects more often now that you needed to tank the shots with your shield and since it was near impossible to out heal bleed effects and being stunned almost made sure their next attack would hit it became a grind to actually get anything done.

Castles are overall meaningless but I suspect that is more for other viking enemies than for the undead threats sent to you. The slow harvesting meant you had no other choice but to go for a walk throughout the lands in order to get enough of anything to make a difference. Then there is boards, those god forsaken boards drove me insane since I never had enough timber and coupled with the fact that harvesting is slow and durability is so limited early on that things just got out of hand.

Game is fun enough for 7 or so hours but once you get near the end it needs to be rebalanced since there is little you can do without having to run off to heal after every boss when previously I managed to do 4-5 bosses back to back.

The game is a get resources to upgrade stuff to get more resources, with fighting guys in there. Imagine steamworld dig, but over complicated. The over complicated aspect with the multiple areas, multiple creatures to get, multiple places to craft stuff is what makes the game not really worth playing for me. It just complicates the formula, but it doesn't make it fun.

The dev doesn't seem to get that their game isn't fun - for instance, you can teleport out of dungeons, so they seem to understand crawling back is a drag, but then they charge you gold for doing that, which adds to the grind. So they know it isn't fun, but they want to penalize you for shortcutting it? They need to reexamine their lives.

If you really like this kind of game, you'll probably like it. It has a lot of different stuff in it, and graphics are good. It is well made. Just isn't for me.

The starvation mechanic makes the game a slog. It's just annoying how easy is to deplete that bar and how slow food charges it. Is there a solution for this? Yes, there is. The devs released a PAID dlc that makes the game more enjoyable. Something that should have been a free update...

The combat is pretty limited, the mining makes it feel like you are playing a mobile game, and the constant hunger meter might drive you nuts. But for some reason it's still a lot of fun. I really like the art style even with the bare bones animations. The crafting system is enjoyable, feels good to find what you need and build up your base, getting stronger and stronger in the process. If you can get past the attack, block, attack, block combat it is a decently enjoyable experience. 6.5/10

Got this from humble bundle.

Niffelheim - it probably stands for endless grind in norse. It's a good game but the grind is unreal and the longer you play the worse it gets, to the point where you need to traverse 20 levels into the mines or catacombs. There is fun to be had here just dont expect too much and get used to doing same thing over and over and over again. I can barely recommend this

It's a maybe on a good sale but overall I couldn't recommend it, just not enough to keep things interesting as most of what you end up doing is chores or upkeep. With all the crafting and survival games available, it doesn't do enough to stand out or make quality of life a priority.

+Visuals/art style is nice
+Equipment appears visually on character
+4 different classes to choose from
+Lots to craft
+Dungeons to explore

-Base character designs are lackluster
-Hunger system is just annoying and tedious
-Clunky Scribblenauts-like combat and animations
-Repetitive collecting/making the same items
-Maps are fairly small but walking is slow
-Too many chores, too little viking

The concept is interesting but it is not properly executed. The grinding is too extreme and survival too harsh, everything is too difficult, specially mantaining integrity of crafted gear after the cost of crafting it in the first place... it shouldnt be so demanding to allow for the action part... in any case the graphics and feel are quite bland being 2020, this experience is simply not worth it, and it´s a shame.

I'm not convinced that I'm supposed to be having fun while playing this.

Its a very relaxed game gathering / building game to play with a few friends. Alone its a bit boring and even with friends, the things you can do are quite limited.

Thats why I would recommend it but only if it is on sale, the asked price is too high for the amount of time you can spend on this.

I really enjoy this game. It was much easier to get through with the DLC which is how I started, but I have actually found I enjoy the original better because the challenge. There is a lot of resource gathering and I have died several times but it feels like a much better process imo when you are trying to deal with gear breaking and hunger. If you want a fighting game where you just slash through dungeons, this probably isn't for you. If you enjoy collecting supplies and stockpiling, it is a better fit.

A little grindy game but in a nice way.
The story is ok.
You have to assign task yourself which can be confusing.
Thr crafting system could be more friendly but I solved it by writing things on a paper.
I encountered no bugs.
Tutorial is ok but many things you have to try out to find out how they are working with no explanation.
Personally 4/5.
