I’m not saying you can’t go it alone – there is a solo play option – but the game is appreciably less rewarding for lone warriors. With all the foraging, crafting, upgrading, building, exploring, and every other thing that needs doing, it’s easy to see that Tribes of Midgard is, at its heart, a multiplayer game. Getting a Game Over is part of the experience with Tribes of Midgard, and while I find its gameplay loop interesting for now, I wonder if recollecting the same materials to fight the same threats could begin to wear thin later on. Rather than frustrate, failing provoked me to jump back into a session to try different strategies. Many of my early attempts to defend Yggdrasil came to an abrupt, and cataclysmic, end because I chose poorly. Danger always looms on the horizon – like nocturnal Helthing raids and recurring Jötunn assaults – and I only have a brief day to decide how to prepare for the attack. One of Tribes of Midgard’s most compelling aspects in these early stages is the ever-present tension between what I hope to do and the time I have to do it. Behind the game’s idyllic visuals, the clock is ticking you have nothing, and time is running out. The sounds spill out over a sunny woodland realm, and everything seems peaceful. Peaceful bird chirps rise above a light-hearted orchestral score. Take a seat by the fire, it’s time for a saga. Having played about five hours split across both modes, I have some initial observations for those interested in this Norse-inspired title. Tribes of Midgard borrows from the action, role-playing, and survival genres while offering a campaign-style Saga mode and an endless Survival mode. The multifaceted title makes you an Einherjar, a warrior carried to Valhalla after death, sent to Midgard to protect the Seed of Yggdrasil. ![]() Tribes of Midgard gets a release tomorrow.
