Aug 26, 2021Tribes of Midgard’s biggest problem is tied to its core gameplay loop – time. There’s just never enough of it. The game has a world full of goodies and gear to loot, but you’ll be lucky to see half of it, and even less if you’re a solo player. There are still good times to be had and the loop is fun and rewarding – just make sure you take a few mates with you.

Aug 22, 2021Tribes of Midgard feels adventurous and entertaining, and while the Endless mode is nothing special, the Saga section of the game carries the weight on its own and eventually delivers, even though some annoying bugs hurt the overall experience.

Aug 16, 2021You can mix disparate features and still get a great game, but this is not what happened with Tribes of Midgard. Even though it’s muddled, it could still be a great survival game if it didn’t waste so much of your time.

Aug 4, 2021When you're playing with your whole clan, Tribes of Midgard is an exciting, hectic, co-op rush to hold off enemies and the elements – It's just a bit too unforgiving if you want to go it alone. Slaying a mighty jotun and racing against the coming of Ragnarok makes for plenty of Norse-flavored fun, but I longed for the chance to explore and interact with its world and systems with less constant upkeep, and at my own pace.

Aug 4, 2021Tribes of Midgard can be a fun, satisfying, and surprisingly friendly action-survival experience, but without the right guide and crew, you might find yourself lost at sea. Dedicated Vikings may find treasure here, but for some, Tribes of Midgard will wear thin quickly – just another trinket for your pile of shame.

Aug 10, 2021Although interesting and addictive, Tribes of Midgar tries to do more than it can, making itself look flawed against its competition.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Feb 17, 2022Tribes of Midgard is definitely an interesting addition to cooperative multiplayer titles with imaginative mechanics across game genres such as: survival, roguelike, rpg and more. Unfortunately, instead of choosing the best from each genre, it constantly balances among all at the same time, and it doesn't always work out. However, for a cooperating bunch of friends, it's a title you shouldn´t definitely miss.

Aug 8, 2021After a few hours of playing, you quickly realize that Tribes of Midgard is trying too many genres at the same time and doesn't follow through on its ideas. This RPG-inspired survival Rogue-Lite offers some great things, but too many game systems lack depth to engage players. The excessive simplicity of the combat mixed with a loot and a minimalist crafting hard to forget the redundant and unbalanced structure of the experience. There remains a sympathetic and pleasant universe to explore. Too bad it is impossible to do it at your own pace, because it is mandatory to join the camp after dark.
