Gameplay


Bad North focuses on real-time tactics gameplay. The main goals are to defend the kingdom from the attacking Viking invaders who killed the king and to guide the island's people to evacuate.[citation needed] Islands have different layouts so each poses a different challenge. They are divided into multiple tiles and have houses with Vikings attacking from any corner, so the player's strategy must be well planned to get the opportunity to save the people from the enemy by protecting the houses. The Viking invaders will chuck torches into the houses, and if they burn completely the player will not earn coins for those houses. Gold is needed to get upgrades for units and level up commanders' defenses. The player can also pick up items (represented as question marks in the map) and add new commanders to the Army.[1]

The game offers easy, normal, and hard difficulty options.


Expansions


On July 24, 2019, a free expansion for Bad North called "Jotunn Edition" was released.[2]


Reception


Bad North received "mixed or average reviews" according to Metacritic. The game was nominated for Strategy/Simulation Game of the Year at the D.I.C.E. Awards.[10]
