About ASKA

ASKA poster

ASKA is a Viking survival game that challenges you to raise a self-sustaining tribe on PC, working, crafting, hunting and fighting alongside a settlement of intelligent NPC villagers you command and organize. You can live out the fantasy solo or with up to three friends, building your community from the ground up and defending it against ancient threats and the harshest of winters.

Managing people is central to the experience. You assign villagers different jobs so each contributes to the tribe and leaves their own mark on the settlement, and you steadily expand by constructing housing, workshops, mines, farms, defenses and more. Exploration matters too, taking you into hidden caves and out across a completely procedurally generated world full of secrets, landmarks and dangers that keeps every session fresh. A realistic, dynamic weather system shifts your survival priorities as the seasons turn.

Combat and creativity round things out, with skill-based fights against a range of mythical enemies and the freedom to customize buildings using functional furniture and decorative items. Every structure is handcrafted in detail, so your village grows into a settlement that is both practical and genuinely alive, blending action, adventure and simulation.
