    NORSE: Oath of Blood is a decent Viking-themed turn-based title whose strengths lie in its well-told narrative, gripping voice acting, and interesting characters and dialogue. However, it’s hindered by its plethora of visual and in-game bugs, as well as several unpolished odds and ends here and there that only add to a frustrating experience.

    Norse: Oath of Blood deserves praise for its nice presentation and solid turn based tactics. The linear campaign, its uninspired building mechanics and a plethora of technical issues however really drag it down. Clearly a game that needed more time in the oven.

    NORSE: Oath of Blood has kept me engaged with its well-utilized Norwegian setting and linear storytelling that integrates well with the gameplay. The combat is fun, offering freedom in positioning and combos, though it lacks challenge. Building and managing your settlement provides a nice break from the combat. Despite enjoying the missions, numerous bugs and issues prevent the game from being fully successful, but I remain hopeful the developers will address them soon, as it has rekindled my interest in turn-based combat games.
