The Game

Medieval Strategy on Gotland

Set on the historic island of Gotland, Sweden, Imperia Borealis is a browser-based multiplayer strategy game. Manage your estate's economy, train armies, choose a religious path, and compete with other lords for control of the island's parishes. There's nothing to download. It runs in your browser on desktop and mobile.

🌿

Build & Produce

Construct farms, quarries, lumbermills, and mines. Assign workers and manage a real-time economy driven by wheat, stone, lumber, and iron.

⚔

Train & Conquer

Rally militia, archers, and knights. Launch attacks on rival estates, pillage resources, and defend your lands from invaders and bandits.

⛵

Trade & Set Sail

Send caravans to Visby's market, then load ships and trade across the Baltic with the Hanseatic Kontörs in Bruges, Novgorod, Bergen and Lübeck.

☤

Faith & Rituals

Choose the path of Aesir or Christianity. Perform rituals that grant production bonuses, combat blessings, or powerful defensive wards.

🏰

Parish Alliances

Cooperate with neighbours to build a Tingsplats, vote on parish-wide decisions, and unlock collective bonuses for everyone in the region.

🗺

Living Map

Explore Gotland's 92 hand-drawn parishes. Every estate, outpost, road, and army is visible on the shared island map.

🏴☠

Defy the Pirate King

The pirate Klaus Störtebeker raids Sandön in force. You won't beat him alone, so pool your armies with other lords and push him back before he chokes your trade routes.

The Steading

Season 2 runs for three months on its own fresh map. The estate is rebuilt from the ground up: you place every building yourself in a fully rendered world, and the old menu of tabs is gone. It closes on the 4th of December.

⌂ Build Where You Like

Your estate is a place, not a list. Drag farms, workshops and warehouses onto the ground and lay the yard out however you want.

🛣 Carts & Free-Form Roads

Draw your own roads curve by curve, then watch carts haul goods along them. A bad layout is a slow economy.

🏭 Every Slot Counts

One hundred building slots, and no tier gates on the count. What you choose to leave out matters as much as what you build.

📜 Quests Reforged

Rewritten chains that walk you from your first farm to a working estate, instead of leaving you to guess what comes next.

⚔ Sharper Armies

Units rebalanced so a mixed force beats a single stack, and conversions now cost faith instead of coming free.

🏆 Season Leaderboards

Compete on the merchant and conquest boards. The top players earn titles at the end of the season that follow them to the permanent realm.
