About This Game



The Great Whale Road is a story-driven adventure set in the Early Middle Ages. Travel through an ancient world, sailing along the North Sea and battling foes in turn-based combat. Interactive historical fiction comes to life through its digitally hand-drawn art, colourful characters, atmospheric soundtrack, and deeply researched lore.

Fight, trade and discover the story of your village and its heroes. Are you worthy to lead them to renown and riches?

Gameplay is split into two seasons. Winter to manage and plan for the year ahead and summer when you sail the whale road and visit other towns and villages. You and your warband have to fulfill a quest each year, while ensuring that you have sufficient food to feed everyone through the long months of winter. Digitally hand-drawn locations are connected by an atmospheric side-scrolling sailing mode. Grid based tactical combat means that Valhalla can be just a warcry away.

v1.2.4: The Franks and the Frisians are here (and French language support, too)!
25 OCTOBER - SUNBURNED GAMES



Hello Everyone!

After a longer than planned beta all three storylines are available. The game can be played in five languages now:
•   English
•   German
•   French
•   Spanish
•   Italian
The two new storylines illuminate the Frankish-Frisian conflict of the 7th century from both sides. This adds a lot of hours and new content to TGWR.

This version includes the following additions and changes:
•   A Frankish and a Frisian storyline - each with their own heroes and backstories
•   Auto-end turn during combat
•   Revised village upgrade trees
•   Combat balancing tweaks
•   Over a hundred new event illustrations for key events across all three storylines
•   A number of trading quests for each of the storylines
•   Some new sailing events for the Danes
•   Revised tutorial pages

This is the likely end of the 'whale road' and we heartily thank you for rowing along. If you encounter any issues please post them on the support forum.

Please note that we recommend that you start a new game with this release. We have tested some older save games and in general they work, but the balance will be impacted and you might experience technical issues.
