About ASKA

BUILD, LEAD, SURVIVE

In ASKA, build and sustain a powerful Viking tribe where you and your villagers work, craft, hunt, and fight together. Command intelligent NPC villagers, guiding them through the challenges of survival in a harsh and dangerous world. Play solo or with up to three friends and forge your legend.

BUILD AND CUSTOMISE YOUR OWN VIKING SETTLEMENT
Design and construct every aspect of your village - from homes and workshops to altars and fortifications. Each structure serves a purpose, contributing to the functionality and defense of your thriving community.



A LIVING, BREATHING VILLAGE
Construct and live within your village. Build, work, and fight alongside your tribe, witnessing & managing your villagers’ daily schedules. Villagers require food, water, & rest as well as having their individual needs and strengths based on their perks. Witness their individual stories unfold as they contribute to the settlement's growth and resilience. You’re not just building a base; you’re nurturing a living community.



LEAD YOUR TRIBE
Assign roles and train villagers in various skills, whether in battle or their chosen vocation. Developing skilled blacksmiths will benefit the tribe with tools and weapons, while proficient hunters will be able to explore further into the world gathering additional resources to feed them more effectively. Strategic planning will enhance your tribe's efficiency and preparedness for external threats.



PREPARE FOR WAR - AND HARSH WINTERS
A wise leader prepares for battle even in peaceful times. In these mystical lands, you must be prepared for the challenges of the Blood Moon, and as winter sets in be ready to face the freeze and prevent your tribe from succumbing to the cold, harsh environment. Seek out dark forces scattered throughout the lands and build powerful runestones to improve your tribe and village. Will you be ready?
