Valheim Adventures
Valheim is a game about exploring a huge fantasy world inspired by Norse mythology and Viking culture. You start your adventure at the relatively peaceful center of Valheim. The further from the center you travel, the more challenging the world becomes. But you will also find more valuable materials that you can use to craft deadlier weapons and sturdier armor. You will also build your own Viking strongholds and outposts all over the world. Eventually, you will build a mighty longship and sail the great oceans in search of exotic lands -- but be wary of sailing too far.
Its vast, rich world allows you to battle, build, and conquer your way to a saga worthy of Odin’s patronage! This brutal exploration and survival game can be played by 1-10 players at a time.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Check out these major elements of the game that you'll contend with almost every time you play.
Valheim is an upcoming survival and sandbox video game by the Swedish developer Iron Gate Studio. Published by Coffee Stain Studios,[1] it was released in early access on 2 February 2021 for Windows and Linux on Steam.[2] The game was developed by a five-person team, building on development work which Richard Svensson had undertaken as a side project in his spare time.[3]
Setting and plot
Valheim takes place in a world where slain Vikings go to prove themselves fit for the halls of Valhalla. As one such, the player begins with nothing and soon discovers that to reach the Norse afterlife, they must defeat the evils that stalk Valheim.[4] Led only by their instincts and occasional hints from a raven,[5] the player must prepare to fight the sworn enemies of Odin himself.[6]
Gameplay
As fallen Vikings, players must craft tools, build shelters and fight enemies to survive.[7] The game uses a distinctive low-resolution stylized 3D graphics, with a third-person perspective and a combat system inspired by action games.[8] Co-operative gameplay with up to ten people and optional PvP gameplay are also supported.[7]
The procedurally generated world includes several biomes: Meadows, Black Forest, Swamp, Mountains, Plains, Ocean, Mistlands, Deep North and Ashlands.[9] Each biome has a different difficulty level with different enemies, bosses and items. A unique food system makes in-game hunting, foraging and farming key to progression: the amount of health and stamina available to a player is dependent on the variation and quality of the food that is eaten.[10]
In addition, the game utilizes a skill level system that ranges from blocking to running. Each skill can be increased up to 100, and has different effects on the game mechanics. For example, the spears skill will determine the damage the player can do with spears[11], while the running skill will determine how stamina is drained while sprinting.
Combat makes use of one- and two-handed weapons, shields, bows and spears.[12][13] Players can travel through the different biomes either by foot or on crafted boats, which range from rafts to Viking longships.
Development
Valheim was released into alpha in June 2018.[14] The game was officially released into early access on 2 February 2021, with no full release date announced so far.
Continued support for the game is planned throughout 2021, and it involves the expansion of unfinished biomes,
Valheim has received positive reviews from critics and users. As of 3 March 2021, the game is ranked as number 39 in the best user reviewed games on Steam of all time.[16] IGN gave the game a rating of 9/10, stating that the game has "excellent art and music highlighting a world that generates endless exciting stories".[17] PC Gamer called Valheim a "rare exception" for early access games, as well as stating that the game "feels refined and satisfying as it is right now".[18] The Washington Post endorsed Valheim, stating that it wasn't only a great game, but that it was good at being more than just a game.[19]
A month after its release, it had sold five million copies and was one of the most-played games on Steam.[20][21]
