I Love survival games, I really enjoy games like Viking Frontiers. If you enjoy games similar to Viking Frontiers, then check out the following page. I list all the gameplay elements of Viking Frontiers and at the bottom of the page is a list of survival games with similar gameplay elements.
This game is in early access and I have played it some both in the original beta and now in early access. the information below is per the developer/steam page or whatever else is available.
Viking Frontiers is being developed in the Unity Engine
Viking Frontiers is being developed by Blum Entertainment, which appears to be a small studio with several games in the works.
I played the demo. There is no way to know how exactly the survival elements will be implimented in the future, currently I experienced the standard eat and drink or run out of HP’s and Die. I don’t see any requirement for the followers to eat and drink.
The buildings are designed, and built in stages.
You will need to craft various tools and supplies for yourself. I did not find any items ready to use.
Looting appears to be all gathering.
The only enemy I came across was wildlife so far, I am very early into the demo, so other AI npc’s could be present now or further into development. This appears it will be a zombie free title.
Governance is not available in the demo, but it appears that it will be present in the game.
There is a farming ability, but actual management is unknown at this time.
There is currently no character customization screen, the game is played in 1st person. There is a leveling system of sorts, with skills and buildings, but it is not clear how this will flesh out in future builds.
I did not experience any weather impacts on gameplay.
There are no game modes at this time, or at least present in the demo.
The map is hand crafted.
The current gameplay is very standard. the games feels like a very unpolished medieval dynasty. Of course it is just a demo, so there is no telling really where the developers will take the game in the end. Everything here is subject to change, and some of the elements are locked up. I could not tell if the demo is its own island, or how the actual game starts.

Check out and on YouTube.
The following games have these gameplay features. Although most survival games have all these elements and more, you should find that overall you would be playing very similar mechanics but with different graphical assets.
