• Answers to questions about the last patch and loss of save data - 12 February 2023

  Hey everyone, Just wanted to follow up on a couple of questions that have been popping up since the last patch was released and then rolled back. On the topic of what the patch was for, it was a small number of UI and controls updates to improve the user experience on SteamDeck. On the subject of save data, it's currently unclear exactly how that broke the backwards compatibility for saves, but we will investigate and update you all once we know. However, the error message does not mean that you lost your save game, only that the patched version was unable to read the file. After the rollback to the old version of the game, your save data should be recovered. Also, we want to apologise for the hijinks this patch caused and also the lack of patch notes at the time of release. We will, in future, make sure to share patch notes, so you know what the patch is addressing for any future patch…

• Try Townscaper, a Town-Building Toy from Oskar Stålberg - 4 November 2021

  If you haven't seen it yet, Bad North's own Oskar Stålberg released his next project, Townscaper, on Steam this year. The launch roll-out just finished with its release on mobile and we wanted to make sure that all you fans of Bad North knew about it! Build quaint island towns with curvy streets, small hamlets, soaring cathedrals, canal networks, or sky cities on stilts. Build the ocean-city of your dreams, block by block. No goal. No real gameplay. Just plenty of building and plenty of beauty. That's it. Townscaper is an experimental passion project. More of a toy than a game. Pick colors from the palette, plop down colored blocks of houses on the irregular grid, and watch Townscaper's underlying algorithm automatically turn those blocks into cute little houses, arches, stairways, bridges, and lush backyards, depending on their configuration. Grab your copy on Steam today and be sure t…

• Why every strategy fan should try Bad North - 11 September 2020

  "It's grim up north," it's said in the UK - often sardonically by northerners. They don't know the half of it. We're north of north now, where the hills are high and craggy - a reflection of the people that live between them, constantly bracing for outside intrusion. The pines are tall and spiky, just like the pikes we've fashioned from their branches. I'm grateful for these natural defences against the oncoming assault. We stand on the beaches, sharp sticks pointed outwards, ready to poke the invaders back into the cold seas. Or failing that, make enough holes in them that they stop climbing. Discordant horns jeer from the horizon, or at least where the horizon ought to be - the fog is so thick that we can hear our enemy before we see them. Black-clad and white-helmed, reminiscent of Spirited Away's No Face, the marauders crash against the shore like waves. I can see my tiny soldiers f…

• Bad North is even better when bad luck enters the fray - 26 May 2020

  I loved Bad North back when I reviewed it. It's a doomy game about fighting off invading forces, set on a chilly archipelago strung across the edge of the world. It's one of those games where brilliantly simple mechanics - three kinds of units, very straightforward victory and loss conditions for each scrappy battle - are married to rich atmospheric details. The seas here are glassy and still, each island a bleached eruption of cold earth. You feel the cold, the wind, and you get a sense of how tenacious life must be to get by here. And then the invaders arrive, masked and silent in their black ships which ghost in without sails to propel them. There is a horrible inevitability to their advancing, something of a bad dream to it. And the horn that marks their arrival! The horn. At the time I was playing it for review, Bad North struck me as being almost a museum exhibit of a game - every…

• Have You Played Bad North? - 26 May 2020

  Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. I have written several times about the tiny Norse boys of Bad North . This mini strategy game sees you marshalling different squads of troops to defend a procedurally generated island from viking invaders. (more…)

• Bad North: Jotunn Edition is this week's Epic Games Store freebie - 21 November 2019

  Half-Life: Alyx , finally unveiled today by Valve, will be free for everyone who owns the Index VR headset. But what if you don't own an Index VR headset? For the next seven days, you can get Bad North: Jotunn Edition for free from the Epic Games Store instead. Bad North is a stylish "real-time tactics roguelike" about an island kingdom (actually a whole bunch of islands) being invaded by Vikings. Your job is to hold them off while your people evacuate, a process complicated by the different designs and layouts of each island. Strategy is obviously at the heart of the matter but there's a strong element of puzzle game to it too, and as we said in our 78/100 review , it's harsh but fair: "Moving troops feels like playing with a small box of toys. The soft wind and waves make each island feel like a lovely little haven, the cottages dotting the islands adding to the wholeso…
