Lazy work
For those on MacOSX, you are better off buying this title on Steam. They can't even be bothered to create an .app for the game, the installer dumps the files in a folder after which you are supposed to open terminal and launch the game using commands. 0/10

Great concept, garbage implementation
The game is fun and the artstyle and mechanics are great. The performance is absolutely awful, especially in some multiplayer modes. This makes them almost unplayable and extremely frustrating.

I'm pleasantly surprised
I bought this game because it was on discount (and because it is an Indy Game). I did not expect, that I would play it much, because I am a singleplayer and I had the impression that Northgard is more a multiplayer game. But there is enough to do for singleplayer too. And of course I don't know how good the multiplayer mode is. The game is a little bit like Civilization and Settler, at first glance much simplier, only a few kinds of buildings, a few technologies and no production chains. But it is harder to survive and there are different ways to do that. The art style is cartoonish, you may like it or not depending on you preferences, but it is well done. The story mode is basically a tutorial with a nice little story (I love the voice of the narrator). I will definitely repeat it on higher difficulty. I'm particulary surprised how much fun the conquest mode is. It seems to be made for singleplayer and will keep me busy for a while.

Good game, but lot of annoying issues...
It is very good strategic game, it could be a nice gem in RTS world I would say, but there are some issues making this game a bit annoying. The latest patch introduced some bugs, 3 games played, conquest multiplayer mode, and 3 crashes - time lost, no progress done. The main issue is linux support. Yes it is possible to install and run it in Linux, but support for this system is getting worse and worse.... It was and still is not possible to play any multiplayer, but now in the latest patch is not possible to play even the singleplayer, there is just story mode available, so about 75% of features disabled. Thats very pitty and I am starting to regret that I bought this game... I hope that bugs will be fixed soon, but I very doubt that Linux will be supported in future :(
