About Bad North
Bad North is a real-time tactics roguelite about defending your island kingdom from Viking invaders and leading your people’s desperate exodus. After the king is killed, you take his place as ruler and organize a fight for survival across a series of islands.
Defend the islands
Each island has a unique, procedurally generated layout. Position and relocate your troops to make use of its terrain, and choose your battles and evacuations carefully: each island gives you only one chance to save it from invasion. The Vikings have different ways of attacking, each with its own counter to your defenses.
You give your soldiers broad commands and manage their positioning; they navigate the island and engage enemies in response to the situation. A stronger, smarter defense earns greater rewards, which you use to develop your subjects from a ragtag militia into seasoned warriors.
The cost of defeat
Lose a commander and they are gone forever. Lose everything, and the game is over. The fight is not for victory, power or riches, but for the hope of peace in the harsh lands of the Bad North.
