💡 The "Tree of Knowledge" is a visual progress scale for the branch: runes light up by the number of researches completed. In the game itself researches unlock by requirements (academy level and previous researches), so the real in-branch order may differ. The calculator sums the total time and resources of the selected stretch — the numbers are exact, verified in-game.

Frequently asked questions about research

How long do all researches in Viking Rise take?
Completing all 2867 academy researches with no boosts is 169,999 days of pure time and 14,299,419,400 resources. With a speed boost the time is cut several times over.
How do I speed up research?
Research speed comes from: the academy, alliance titles, VIP, events and speed-up items. Final time = base ÷ (1 + total boost). The calculator above recomputes this — just enter your boost.
What does the research-speed boost do?
It cuts the time of EVERY research: at +100%% twice as fast, at +200%% three times. The boost does not affect resources, only time.
Which research branches are in the academy?
Four: Economy (gathering, building, collection), Military (T1–T7 — troop attack/defense/HP), Dragon Lair and Advanced Military (T8–T10). Level Economy first — it speeds up all of your development.
How much does a single research cost?
From a couple thousand resources and minutes early on to billions and thousands of days for late-game military. Exact numbers for each are in the per-branch table in the calculator.
