Northland

The basic gameplay of Northland is similar to Age of Mythology and other similar RTS titles. You control a population of Vikings. The growth, development and technology of this society are dependent on you. Elimination of their enemies and acting as their leader and guide on their vision quest is also up to you. The units in Northland are not used for resource collection, attack or defense. This is where Northland is different from other games of this style. Each unit is an individual, has a name, can marry and produce children that grow to repeat the cycle and insure the growth of the village. The citizens are assigned a trade and can be re-appointed and given a different career or path in their life. The buildings in the world are their residence and where they apply their trade to produce products for their fellow Vikings.

About the PPC Port

RuneSoft has ported this excellent game to Linux. I had the pleasure to contribute to the PowerPC Linux version. It was very nice to work with Thomas and all the others of the Rune-Soft crew. I'm very happy that Rune-Soft agreed to port this wonderfull game not only to x86 Linux but also to PowerPC Linux.

I hope that many people will enjoy this lovely game and I hope that many people
will buy the game to support Rune-Soft in creating more games for the PowerPC platfrom.
