Lindisfarne raid, Viking assault in 793 on the island of Lindisfarne ( Holy Island) off the coast of what is now Northumberland. The monastery at Lindisfarne was the preeminent centre of Christianity in the kingdom of Northumbria. The event sent tremors throughout English Christendom and marked the beginning of the Viking Age in Europe.

Theme: 'Raiding'

1. They scared many, were welcomed by many, helped the anglo-saxons or at least anglos in the north and east get back to their germanic-scandinavian paganism and back off a bit from christianity. They put pressure on anglo-saxon england as a whole to.
2. Northumberland The 8th of June 793 AD. The Norse raid on the holy island of Lindisfarne on June 8th 793 shocked a people, and gave warning of future clashes with the warrior-bandits from across the North Sea. The portents were there for some time before June 8th: terrible storms, immense sheets of lightning, fiery dragons even according to the Anglo- Saxon Chronicles.

Inspired by the initial historical raids of the Vikings on Britain, this playful depiction of the times around 793 AD are the theme of a waypoint-based game made in Unity with assets that will all be linked below.

The player is tasked with boots-on-the-ground traversal of the Northumbrian territories as a mighty viking set on pillaging, burning, and looting whatever they want. There are 5 total levels, each following an overarching narrative within the theme. The gameplay consists of vaulting over dangerous obstacles, avoiding fire, and exploring a slice of dramatized history in good ol' Viking fashion.

Are you ready to take on Northumbria's men-at-arms and garrisons then plunder? Or will today be the day you knock on Valhalla's great doors?

Between c. 780–814 the British Isles were beset by raids, targeted by bands of Vikings, who radiated out from Denmark and Norway. Their raids began with coastal settlements in Wessex, Mercia, Northumbria and the Gaelic Irish kingdoms. According to Anglo-Saxon histories, the first ‘Northmen' landed at Portland, Wessex, c. Rebuild of edge mac os. 789, in fast and efficient long ships, and ‘sought out the lands of the English race'. This raid was probably opportunistic, unlike the later raid on Lindisfarne monastery in 793. In a carefully orchestrated attack, Viking raiders plundered the Lindisfarne church of St Cuthbert, ‘a place more sacred than any in Britain', and slaughtered its occupants. This sent shock waves throughout Christian Europe, with many of the devout believing that the Viking raids prefigured Doomsday. The Vikings did not restrict their raiding to Britain; they started raiding the west coast of France in the 790s and in 814, they plundered a monastery 50 miles (80 km) west of Nantes, while travelling southwards towards the Bay of Biscay.
