Good game
super fun
Not bad but with a big discount.
Love it. i enjoy little puzzle and strategy games like this. i find it relaxing to just listen to music or even some youtube vids as background noise while playing this game.
Viking Brothers is a time/resource management game similair to the 12 Labors of Hercules series. It's just not as good or fun. The graphics are okay, but the proportions look really off to me. The music gets really annoying, but the game does function well. For some reason my play time isn't show up right, I'm on level 14 and it took quite a bit longer to get there than 30 minutes, weird. It's not a horrible game, I just didn't like it much.
Wished it was 12 Labours of Hercules.
Gameplay gets too tedious for casual.
Dated feel of the interface is actually kinda nice.
Music is very repetitive
Has/Had potential but really is a sadistic version of the 12 Labours of Hercules.
I realy enjoy playing this game. :D
This game is amazing. I played a similar game on the phone one time and really liked it. I gave this one a try and honestly it is the second best game i played all year long after Witcher 3.
i want my time back,, u can keep the rest
Plays similar to 12 Labours of Hercules (just way more simplistic; 12 Labours is superior in several ways). Good time waster. I'd like it a lot more if it didn't constantly freeze up in the middle of levels.
The main challenge in the game is finishing each level quickly; I haven't seen any other real goals. Collect resources, build resource buildings (farms, quarries, etc), defeat savages (barbarian warriors), help the gods, save the world. Graphics are simple; I turn the music down to watch Netflix so I can't comment there.
The main story has the Vikings helping the gods repair their kingdom after some barbarians tear through; I'm not sure why the gods are having trouble with some human fighters, but OK.
I like simple games like this that I can play while watching Netflix or something, and again, this one would be perfect, but it freezes up in the middle of levels all the time and I have to force quit, then start over.
If you like this type of time managment game then this one is failry good.
Pros:
Long - almost 50 levels.
Lots of different objects manage.
Multiple environments.
Cons:
Finsihing levels is no challenge at all.
If you are experienced at this type of game then getting gold time is far too easy on almost all levels.
The story is generic rubush and sterotypical.
Overall 7.5/10
If you can shut your mind off and just click with a fairly bad story, it's for you. Not much story though. Figured it would be a little clever like the Hercules games but no luck there.
First impression after 21/50 levels: the game is well done. Each level takes about 10 minutes to do once, more attempts if you want to beat the clock challenge, which is reasonably difficult.
You start each level off with a single worker who can collect resources that are lying around and don't regrow, and who can build resource producers: farms for food, mines for stone, sawmills for lumber, barracks for fighters, and upgrade his own house for more workers. Since building costs resources, the order in which you collect and build your stuff matters if you want to be quick.
Do you want to be quick? If you are, you'll get "gold" on the level, and it is marked completed on the map, but you don't need that to progress. Most of the time, I'm getting silver on my first attempt; getting gold requires a second or third attempt with some thought about strategy and a learning process. But do I want to? Initially, I did. But there's no reward other than the satisfaction of having met the challenge (no Steam achievements, either). And you know, doing build strategy against the clock sucks for me -- one reason I'm not into RTS much is that I want time to think, to puzzle out a good strategy, but to do that I'd need to pause the game and review the data and issue my orders, but the game doesn't have a "tactical pause" like that. I do tolerably well without that, but I don't really feel in control enough for it to feel fun, and I'm not invested enough to go all out analytical and make charts of the resources required for each upgrade and so forth. So I stopped going for gold after level 7.
If you feel you'd enjoy doing real-time build strategy without the fighting, this game will provide a wide variety of reasonably difficult challenges for you, and you're likely to get a lot of joy out of it: for you, to complete the game "all gold" might be rated at 15 hours or more, unless you're a bit better at strategy than I am. (And you could still try to beat your times.)
If you just like to see small toons scurry about the screen at your beck and call whilst progressing through 50 very varied challenges (the map design has really been nice so far), or would like to have a game to come back to that you can play in 10-minute-installments, you can expect about 8 hours.
My playtime so far amounts to an estimated 4 hours, which is fine for the 1.50€ it cost me. If you see it on sale or in a bundle, you could do worse than to give it a try. Recommended.
The game is DRM-free and runs without Steam.
its an alright game but not recommended
Rating; 7/10
Pros:
- Fun, simple, and straightforward
- Family friendly
- Good storyline
- No micro-transactions
- Later puzzles can be challenging
- Enjoyable music
Cons:
- Soundtrack is relatively repetitive
- Little replayability after you finish all the puzzles
- Can be too 'simple' for the veteran, hardcore gamer
Overall: Perfect for the casual gamer who enjoys a puzzle or two after work. Simple, fun, and easy to play. Would be way better with Workshop.
Review:
This is a fun game if you are looking for a fun, puzzle-solving strategy game that appeals to all ages. The gameplay mechanics are simple to understand and easy to grasp, and I believe can be a great game for the family (relatively non-violent, fun, simple).
The purpose of the game is that in each level you are designated to help the Viking Brothers proceed on their mission by solving obstacles by gathering certain amounts of resources. The faster you do this, the better the 'rating' you get at the end of the level. The further you go, the more challenging the puzzles get. The story is fun, quirky and a bit funny at times. The character art in my opinion also is simple, cartoon but amicable. Because of the game's simpicity, it is an easy game to pick up and start playing.
Overall I would give it a 7/10. It is a perfect, family-friendly puzzle adventure game that is great for the casual gamer, or to plug into a HDMI port in your TV and give it to guests or family for entertainment. It's also fun for the casual gamer who doesn't have too much time to spend playing games, but likes to play a little puzzle after work.
The downside is this game costs $10 (isn't too bad but really should cost $5-7 - try to get it on sale), and can be too simple for the hardcore gamer because it is not extremely challenging or detailed. The game also does not have Steam Workshop, so after you finish the puzzles there isn't much incentive to go back and try them again (except for getting a better rating, or reliving the storyline). This can mean your purchase has a certain life to it depending on how long it takes you to finish the game (but they could always add Workshop additions to the game, if they wanted to).
If they added the option for Steam Workshop to work with this game, $10 would be worth the pricetag. This game has alot of potential for Steam Workshop, mainly because people could create custom puzzles for the Steam community to have fun on, and create their own stories for the Viking Brothers to go on. If this happens, my score to the game would be 8/10, because it would have potentially unlimited replayability.
But as is, overall its a fun addition to Steam if you're looking for a fun puzzle-adventure game that is easy to understand and play; but don't expect something that will last you forever.
This game was incredible boring without any challenge or pressure at all - even toddlers would get bored. It feels like playing a point and click game without use of brain. There is a timer in the game, however the timer never get anywhere near running out. The music is awful, the sfx ok, the gfx fine, encountered a few bugs. All in all, not worth money.
