You must manage the recruitment of Vikings and choose the best areas to explore. There are two types of destinations: the trading lands, to create a trade route, and the influential lands, where you can leave permanent settlements. To explore a destination, you must leave some of your party members behind.

Once the route to a destination is open, you can spend silver bracelets to trade and collect profits. Depending on the destinations you reach and the Vikings that accompany you, you can increase your reputation to gain even more wealth.
