Tale of Ale: Viking Saga Begins (2024)

In the sagas of old, the glory went to the warriors and kings. But what about the crafters and traders, the true backbone of Viking conquests? Without them, with empty hands there would be no victory! In the warmth of the mead hall, it’s their own hands that raise the ale, their voices rich with tales of skill and trade that lead to great raids! In Tale of Ale: Viking Saga Begins, you step into the boots of a Viking Harbourmaster, the unsung hero who knows how to acquire enough shields, axes and ale for a whole Drakkar Longboat Crew to power the legendary raids! The Challenge: The Jarl of Skjoldhavn has blown the horn for a grand raid. Five fierce clans arrived at the harbor with their Drakkars but their fleets are unprepared!
