Choose Pirate Clan for pirate adventures and fleets; choose Viking Clan for Norse fantasy, Warriors and Weapons. Both offer a character to develop, Adventures, rival Battles and teams of other players. The setting and the people you want to play with are useful starting points for deciding between them.

Why choose Pirate Clan?
Pirate Clan is the choice to try if you want to develop a captain and explore a fantasy version of life at sea. Complete Adventures, collect equipment and build your income while discovering locations.
Captains are your allies, and Armadas are teams for shared goals and competition. If you enjoy the idea of a crew, ships and rival captains, that theme can make the everyday progress more appealing.

Why choose Viking Clan?
Viking Clan is worth trying if you prefer Norse fantasy. Your Chieftains help strengthen your Clan, while Warriors and Weapons give you equipment to collect and improve. Adventures and Battles sit alongside building Gold income through your Empire.
A Guild gives you a group to join for shared goals. If you already have friends in a welcoming Guild, that social connection may matter more than comparing a particular item or location.

Which is better for a beginner?
Start with the setting you want to return to, then follow its tutorial. You do not need to know every event before choosing. Learn what an Adventure costs, what a Battle result tells you and how allies contribute.
Our Pirate Clan beginner guide and Viking Clan beginner guide explain those first steps. Avoid assuming that an account’s level in one game makes it equally experienced in the other.
A simple way to decide
- Pick the world that appeals to you most.
- Complete the tutorial and an available Adventure.
- Look at your character, equipment and allies.
- Ask a beginner-friendly Armada or Guild what playing with them involves.
- Choose based on the activities and community you want to return to.
