What this game is
Valheim is a survival game set in a Norse purgatory, where Odin has sent you into Yggdrasil to kill ancient monsters. Each biome is a separate world with its own boss, new materials and survival rules.
Progression goes through the biomes: you start in the Meadows, where you chop trees, build a house and make leather armor. Kill the stag Eikthyr and the Black Forest opens up. There you find copper and tin for bronze. Next come the Swamp (marsh, iron, Bonemass), the Mountains (wolves, silver, the dragon Moder), the Plains (flatlands, flax and black metal, the giant Yagluth), the Mistlands (fog, magic, The Queen), and finally the Ashlands (2024 update): the fiery wasteland of Flametal, the new flagship ship Drakkar, and the latest boss so far, Fader.
Co-op is the heart of the game: up to 10 players on one dedicated server. One builds the base, another hunts, a third smelts metal, and the division of labor forms naturally. Worlds are tied to a seed, and you can move your character between servers.
Building: Norse architecture made of wood, stone and metal. The construction physics are structural: beams need support or they collapse. The community builds fortresses, ships and whole villages.
Russian interface and subtitles are available, with no official voice acting, but the game does not require deep knowledge of the lore to get started.
Norse survival game in Yggdrasil for up to 10 players: build, craft and fight bosses, from the Meadows to the fiery Ashlands.
