Sons of Valhalla (Windows Game) is a roguelike strategy and action game set in a brutal Viking Age world, blending side‑scrolling combat, base building, and tactical decision‑making. You step into the boots of Thorald Olavson, a warrior on a personal quest to hunt down the Jarl who destroyed his home and kidnapped his beloved, leading your warband across England. The game combines resource management, strategic recruitment, and battlefield tactics as you build fortresses, raise troops, construct siege engines, and engage in both large scale sieges and close‑quarters combat.
Its pixel art aesthetic adds charm and atmosphere to the harsh Norse setting, and each playthrough challenges you to adapt to evolving enemy forces and resource constraints. Reviews are mixed, with praise for its unique genre blend and art style, but some critics note limited depth and a sense of repetition over time. Sons of Valhalla is available on Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store for Windows PCs.
