About the Game


Fimbul combines intense Viking battles with a deep story that unfolds through in-game comics to bring the frozen world of the Norse sagas to life. Immerse yourself in the blistering winter preceding Ragnarok -- The Fimbul Winter!

Use the time-line-tree at any point to explore the decisions that changed your fate.

Navigate your choices, go to any intersection, and follow a different path through your story.

Fight the Vikings using a complex but easy-to-learn weapon-based combat system and gather fellow Vikings to help you defeat trolls the size of trees.

Use items from the distant past to grow and battle the mighty Jutons, a race of giants older than the gods themselves.
