Description

Hammer of the Gods is a strategy game that recreates the world as the Vikings lived it. The gods play an important role in the decisions made and glorious death is one of the highest goals. Unlike other strategy games, building an empire is not necessarily the ultimate goal.

The player competes against other players to win the favor of the Norse gods and become the Hammer of the Gods. The player can raid coastal villages, conquer cities and connect them by building roads. Then he builds castles to protect them. The particular path that the player will follow until victory will vary depending on the "family" of gods that he will have chosen at the beginning of the game. Maintaining honor in the eyes of other Vikings is important throughout the game. The four ways are Man, the Elf, the Troll and the Dwarf. Each of them can become Odin’s chosen leader on Midgard by completing his quest and ensuring the player a place in the legend.
