Viking Brothers 2

Almost everyone knows a bit about the Viking culture, mainly because they are often featured in movies and video games. Hence, Asgard and Valhalla are almost household names, depending on how much you enjoy fantasy stories. On the other hand, it can also get very repetitive after a while, especially if the writers do not come up with interesting new ideas.

Viking Brothers 2 is the second part of the time management series, although it doesn’t really innovate too much when it comes to gameplay mechanics. However, it certainly features more quests and a cast of new characters for you to meet along the way. You can enjoy a couple of new power-ups and special abilities that make your life easier.

The story revolves around two Viking brothers as they embark on a journey around Asgard in order to search for good ale, while also saving the world from a great evil. In order to do so, you have to restore a variety of destroyed buildings, as well as collect all sorts of resources along the way. You can also meet new characters and collect powerful artifacts.

Speaking of which, your job throughout the game is to complete objectives by collecting the necessary resources and using your workers to run around the map in order to repair buildings and solve quests. Sometimes there are special resources that require a lot of work in order to get, while other times you also have to upgrade your facilities before the mission becomes passable.

Lastly, the graphics are not bad either, even if they are about as basic as they can get under the circumstances. Every map is unique and enjoyable, which is great for avoiding repetition. Granted, don’t expect too much in this regard either, since the same tiles are reused throughout the game. The interface is very simple and intuitive, given the fact that all you have to do is click on things and wait for the workers to finish their job.

When it’s all said and done, Viking Brothers 2 is obviously not a revolutionary game, but it has the necessary elements to keep you engaged for many hours. Hence, it’s a great choice for those of you who have a soft spot for time management flicks.
