Each turn in Vikings Gone Wild — a deck-building, resource management game based on the online real-time strategy game — players can either buy permanent buildings sitting in front of them (resource factories, resources containers, etc) or buy units, towers and special cards that improve their deck and offense/defense capacity.
The only way to win is by successfully attacking each other, and each attack involves interesting bluffing mechanisms in which the attacker doesn’t know the defense capacity of their opponent…

Nothing extraordinary. Shuffling through the deck. Not much planning. It felt a bit too long for 3p to be interesting.

As far as deck builders go, this game is simultaneously unique and familiar. You build your deck, and a small tableau of buildings by purchasing from Odin's path (a row similar to ascension or star realms), or from set buildings and cards in stacks (much like dominion). You can also attack opponents buildings, but mostly this just nets you victory points, and doesn't ruin buildings or anything like that. As such, it's interactive without being in your face or take-that, which I love! The engine building is simple but fairly unique, and it puts this game into the category of "deck-builder but with something more". You've seen everything this game has to offer already in games like dominion, ascension, and maybe a little bit of Race for the galaxy, but to my knowledge, no other game puts all of these things together. This game does so, and does it well. The variety the expansions could add might raise this rating in the future, but for now it's still an excellent game that I'd recommend trying if you like any of the other games I mentioned.

I enjoyed it and I won quite easily. Naturally, David has no interest in playing it again. Kind of kidding, but it seems like it often turns out that way.
