Trollheim: Gnomes Aims to Bring the Mystery and Whimsy of Nordic Folklore to a Survival Crafting Game

Trollheim: Gnomes, a new survival crafting game for PC based on Nordic folklore that IGN announced as part of IGN Fan Fest, comes from a team of ex-Mojang developers who all grew up playing in the Nordic woods and hearing folk tales of Sprýg Gnomes and other creatures and want to make a game about it. I got an early look at it, and there's one key thing that might set it apart in a very, very crowded genre: combat is optional.
