Aska

In Aska, players find themselves shipwrecked on a mysterious island where they must tame an uncharted land and build a Viking empire worthy of Odin's praise. Solo or together with up to three friends, players must survive, summon intelligent NPC villagers, collect resources, and build a thriving settlement. Players will need to automate, manage, and defend their expanding tribe and prepare to survive the bitter winters. Developed as the third game installment by Sand Sailor Studios and published by Thunderful, Aska's unique gameplay lies in its AI systems. Aska provides a unique flavor vs other survival games on the market by giving players the opportunity to release themselves from the shackles of repetitive resource collection and management. The player is the master constructor, focusing on leading the tribe and designating the location of buildings. The intelligent AI NPCs are then assigned to work around the town, providing camaraderie and establishing a thriving village.

  • Live out your Viking fantasy solo or with up to x3 friends.
  • Command villagers and build your tribe from the ground up, hunting for resources, and surviving against ancient threats and the darkest winters.
  • Assign each villager various jobs as they contribute to the tribe and leave their own mark on the settlement.
  • Construct housing, workshops, mines, farms, defences and more as you expand your village.
  • Discover hidden caves and explore further to harvest more valuable resources.
  • Explore a fantastical, completely procedurally generated world filled with secrets, landmarks and threats, keeping every session dynamic and fresh.
  • Experience realistic and dynamic weather system across the world, with survival priorities shifting in turn with the seasons.
  • Fight a variety of mythical enemies in exciting skill-based combat.
  • Customize buildings with functional furniture and various decorative items.
