Valheim

Survival RPG set in a Norse-inspired purgatory where 1-10 players gather resources, build bases, and defeat bosses to earn their place in Valhalla. You start with nothing on a procedurally generated map and work through a progression of biomes—each with distinct materials, enemies, and environmental hazards. Combat relies on crafted weapons and shields with stamina management and dodge-timing. Building uses a physics-based system for constructing everything from simple shelters to multi-story halls. Bosses drop items that unlock new crafting tiers, pushing you into harder zones. Death means a corpse run to reclaim your gear. Co-op is drop-in, with shared world persistence. Fits players who enjoy methodical resource loops and don't mind repetitive gathering between boss fights.
