Built in Melbourne, played across the nine realms.
Crafted by a five-person studio on Smith Street, Valkyr Saga Notes has been championed by mobile-first press and indie showcases for its readable combat and generous, ad-light design.
Our world
A living saga that remembers every choice you make.
Each expedition is stitched together from hand-drawn biomes — misted pine valleys, salt-crusted longship decks, and rune-lit burial halls. Nothing repeats exactly, so your fiftieth run feels as fresh as your first.
Between battles you keep a saga journal: notes on the warriors you lose, the runes you master, and the choices that reshape the map. It is a game about the stories you leave behind, not just the ones you win.
- Turn-based combat you can read at a glance
- Offline play — no connection required
- One-handed portrait controls
What you get
Systems deep enough for a saga, simple enough for a bus ride.
The Saga Journal
Every fallen warrior and pivotal choice is logged automatically, building a personal chronicle you can revisit and share.
Longship Crews
Recruit up to six shieldmaidens and berserkers, each with distinct banter, bonds, and battle roles that grow over time.
Offline First
The full campaign runs with zero connection. Play in the tunnel on the Fitzroy tram or on a flight to Reykjavík.
Fair by Design
No energy timers, no loot boxes, no forced ads. One optional purchase unlocks everything, forever.

What the crews are saying.
I have written 60 sagas and each one told a different story. The journal feature turned my commute into something I actually look forward to.

Collingwood, VIC · playing since launch
Finally a mobile RPG that respects my time. No timers, no ads mid-battle — just clean, tactical combat I can read on a small screen.

The weekly Runestone seed got my whole group chat competing. We compare our saga journals every Monday morning.

Offline play saved my last long-haul flight. Downloaded once, played the entire trip to Reykjavík without a single hiccup.
