About the Game

You and your viking crew sail west into unknown waters, drawn by tales of a bountiful land called Vinland. This land is cursed, twisted by an ancient god whose name has been lost to time.

In this multiplayer survival-horror experience, band together with up to 4 players to explore, loot, and survive in a haunted version of ancient America. Every expedition pushes deeper into cursed territories where unspeakable horrors await in procedurally generated dungeons. Scavenge valuable artifacts, battle eldritch creatures, and make it back to your settlement before darkness claims you.

Features:

  • Brutal combat system with dismemberment - you'll lose arms and legs, and you'll need to adapt or find a way to replace it.

  • Limb-grafting: Stitch on parts from fallen enemies for powerful but unpredictable effects.

  • Haunted dark fantasy - Dungeons in the new world are twisted by an old god. Every journey outside your settlement walls is a unique descent into madness.

  • Upgrade your ship. Use the bounties you find in the depths to upgrade and create new ships.

Vinlanders pushes the boundaries of cooperative horror. The land holds great riches, but at what cost to your humanity? Will your crew return as heroes... or as something else entirely?

Old gods die hard.
