I started this offer through InboxDollars with a maximum payout of $119 for reaching Chief Hall 24 in 45 days. The terms include 4 required purchases which are partially reimbursed (50%).
There’s also several times goals, such as reaching Chief Hall 9 on your first day of play, and Chief Hall 16 by the 5th day. Both goals also require an in-app purchase. This can be accomplished by completing the other spending goals.
Viking Rise is a standard 4X Game with a Norse theme, there are several other “Viking” themed mobile games with similar design and format.

My Progress
Day 18
I just used a 7-Day speedup to finish construction on Chief Hall 19. I also made a 3rd in-app purchase.
I’m just buying the dollar deals using Google Play credit.
I should now qualify for the +$15.75 goal.

Tip: I’ve found the Iron Smelter (Dragon Lair) function really useful after I burned through my free resources. I got some 50k Wood items from the shop and then added them to the Smelter. It multiplies your items after a lengthy cooldown period. I have mine set for every 8 hours. Sometimes I will only double the item, but when I get lucky, it turns into a 150k item.


Alliance: I hopped around a couple times, and now I am with a small group near the edge of the map. There’s less chance of getting raided way out in the boonies. When collecting resources inside alliance territory, there is a 25% bonus speed.
Heroes: I have focused mostly on raising the level of my heroes that get economic bonuses. The Blue and Purple heroes are much easier to get shards for, and they are mostly economic-focused.
Day 10
I’ve started upgrading the Chief Hall (CH) to 16. I missed the bonus goal for CH 16. My next reward is at CH 18.
It’s gonna take 5.5 days to complete, I used most of my speed ups getting to this point and I burned through my resource items.
Getting to CH 16 in 5 days may be possible with speed packs, there are a couple good ones in the shop, but the cost outstrips the reward.
Offer Terms

Alternative Offer (Hero Collection)
On other play-to-earn platforms, the offer terms are to collect 23 Heroes.
There are actually only 22 heroes available Free-to-Play (F2P), so if you are doing that offer, you will need to complete the “First Purchase” event to get the special hero.
The following guide was written by happyadjustablespnrs in the Inbox_Pounds subreddit. Be sure to give the original post an upvote if you find this useful.
Viking Rise Tips
Viking Rise on Inbox Pounds offers £34.10 for collecting 23 heroes. For a ‘free to play’ attempt there are only 24 currently available.
I got 23 with only 2 x £0.99 purchases but potentially could have done it with just 1 x.
These heroes you’ll likely get through normal gameplay (early part of story, and LOTS of Hall of Valor summons):
- Svienn
- Waltham
- Ulf
- Eugen
- Lindy
- Snorri
- Erik
- Michaela
- Wooden
- Olena
- Cecia
- Ivor
These heroes may need more work:
- Leidolf – available through the Leidolf in h Hiding event. There should be some Iron or Bronze bells in your inventory from normal gameplay, uses these to summon an enemy that can be defeated to get Leidolf shards.
- Sheila – Can’t remember how I obtain this one sorry.
- Rollo – obtainable by getting to floor 5 (I think) in the Rollo challenge which unlocks quite early. Isn’t too much hassle to do the dungeon game and then you don’t need to play this again.
- Jens – I think I got lucky here as I won Jens in one of the random events. Jens can be selected as a Legendary reward for crystals. I got him on second attempt spending only 250 crystals. You might have to spend much more. You won’t get him through the staging post rewards in the time available.
- Laird – I got some shards through the Wheel of Fortune event and then bought the remainder at the Mall for £0.99. I ended up getting enough shards after that I didn’t need to pay.
- Ivana – Obtainable by participating in the Sacred Crucible which nlocks at Chief Hall level 15. I played two games and had enough points to buy the Ivana shards. Took about an hour.
- Sigurd – Got him same way as Jens using crystals
- Varka – Obtainable by completing the staging posts quests
- Yvette – I think she is available in the First Purchase pack which I bought for £0.99
- Gregory – I think he was obtained through the story, I had him very early on
The last hero needs preparation:
- Verdandi / Arthur – Available through the Viking Reign event which happens once a week or once every two weeks. You need to score in the top 100 of users to be awarded 10 hero shards. You’ll need around 2 million points to reach the top 100. I got 4 million and place around 50th. Read the rules of the event but main thing is to save resources, gems and speed ups before the event starts and then use everything available to push up your score. The event lasts over 5 days so does require a bit of management to make sure you can participate each day.
General tips:
- My chief hall was Level 18 when I stopped playing, I think 15 is enough though
- Keep training troops when you have resources as you will need them for the Viking Reign event
- Participate in the regular events to obtain more Oracle Soulstones
- Use gems for Oracle Soulstones when available
- Upgrade the Hall of Valor early to reduce time between free summons
- The other heroes on the list are definitely not obtainable without spending much more money than the offer pays out.
- You can buy some hero shards for Clan points at the Honey Tavern which is in your village.
- Complete the daily tasks to get an extra Oracle Soulstone each day.
20 heroes for £19.10 is definitely achievable with some casual play over the 40 day offer window. 23 is more work and might need a bit of good luck to get the right summons.
Required Spending


Optional Purchases
The Growth Pack is only available if you have purchased/reloaded 15k Gems. There are some pop-up offers that include lots of gems that may contribute to unlocking the Growth Pack. But you can expect to spend $30 (before taxes) to get the necessary Gems.
Additional Builders are unlocked through upgrading the Chief Hall, so you won’t be prompted buy any extras for this offer.

G-Spark Creator Code for Viking Rise

You can only do this within 6 hours of account creation. Use code (GSPCD3FUMV) or follow the steps below.
- Download Link: https://gspark.igg.com/bind?invite_code=GSPCD3FUMV&task_id=41

Collecting Resources

All resources you need during the tutorial can be acquired on the Village map.
After you reach Chief Hall level 6, you can build the Porter Barracks and train Porters, a unit with a high Load capacity. These Porter’s are the unit you will use to collect resources on the World map.

The first Village you capture will be a Gem Prospector.
I strongly advise switching this to Commerce at the earliest opportunity.

The first substantial timer for an upgrade comes at Chief Hall level 6, which is 2 hours and requires Walls and Warehouse to be at level 5 each.

Managing Heroes

It’s difficult to get fragments of the Gold heroes other than from purchases. Some of the events will provide a few fragments, but not enough to upgrade star ranks.
With the exception of Varka and Shiela, Gold heroes are combat focused. For this offer it is better, in my opinion, to focus on leveling up your Purple and Blue heroes.
Tip: The hero Leidolf gets many bonuses to PvE combat. His fragments can be obtained from events with some frequency in the early game. Mostly this involves participating in Rallies.

Check your inventory for Bronze and Iron Bells to rally Leidolf.
Talent Wheel
On the Talent page you can distribute points into the wheel for every level the character has gained.
Advancement on the wheel is gated by the Star ranking of the hero, with 6 stars being the highest rank attainable.
An option to Quick Upgrade a hero is available in the Talent page by tapping on the little stars between the wheel. Alternatively, you may unlock ranks one at a time.
| Rank | Fragments |
|---|---|
| 2 Star | 95 |
| 3 Star | 200 |
| 4 Star | 380 |
| 5 Star | 570 |
| 6 Star | 900 |
Heroes with economic bonuses such as increased Lumber gathering speed are the ones we want to focus on leveling and ranking up.
Hero Leveling Guide
Aim for level 30 on each of the following heroes:
- Purple: Snorri, Michaela, Lindy, and Erik.
- Blue: Eugen, Sveinn, Ulf, and Waltham.
In the Talent Wheel, look for Food, Lumber, Stone, and Gold Gathering. Put 5 ranks into each of these. Also, Gold Reserve and Rapid Gathering are worth getting. We won’t need any of the combat talents for these heroes.
