If we take a different approach to how the game is played, you’ll soon find that the sandbox nature of the game allows for an unlimited amount of free time, and so for those not in a hurry to kill and finish the bosses in this game, you’ll find your zen in building amazing structures in places you feel fits your ideal vision of a Viking world. Since this game has that old, RPG feel, it’s only natural that the first builds you’ll think of doing is a castle.

Now, there are many kinds of castles, from our usual 4 corner wall type of castle, to winding clustered forts that can be used by a number of people that can house a number of function. You’ll only be limited by your creativity (and the occasional workbench/stonecutter range) and for this list, we’ll be looking at some of the most creative builds that shapes how a castle should look or even function.

As with all Valheim lists, this was written at the time of the games’ latest version (Hearth and Home Update, version 0.207.20). For this list, the builds range from single castles to a fort complex. I’ve also avoided compilation videos as I’d like to share the spotlight on the builds -one by one. This list is in no particular order.

Conclusion

There you have it, some examples of what creativity and utilization can get you in this game. While there are far more impressive builds out there, the amount of time and resources needed is only possible if you use console commands or a very large community that is willing to spend countless hours on the project to make it possible. Perhaps we’ll see those types of builds in another time, but for now, these are the more realistic builds you can do for your world, and again, a great selection at that. When all is said and done, you’ll be sitting on top of your creation and feel the power of a king/queen who has an empire he/she can be proud of… or an empty wall.
