Description

Longships are coming for the village. You see where each wave will land before it arrives: raise mounds where they must not beach, dig ditches to slow them, and place your shield wall, spearmen, archers, berserkers and healers. Then the raid begins, and every landing is a small battle you can turn with a well-timed volley, a braced wall or a charge.

A run crosses a sea chart of seven islands: quiet shores and heavy raids, a trading post, an abandoned fort, a storm, a village already burning, an ambush. Win an island and take a card: veterans, new squads, rules that change how you fight. At the end waits the jarl's fleet or the sea-king on two lashed ships.

Features

• Read the raid before it lands: every ship's beach, crew and timing is shown
• Shape the land: mounds, ditches and the shoreline decide where the fight happens
• Squads with abilities: shield wall brace, archer volleys, berserker charge, spear hedge, healing
• Raiders that change the plan: torch-bearers, battering rams, bowmen, brutes, the jarl and the sea-king
• Roguelite runs with commanders, cards, named veterans and five ascension levels
• A daily island and a weekly challenge, the same for everyone, with leaderboards scored by replaying each raid on the server
• Plays on phones and desktops, no download
