Get ready for more nights of masochistic puzzle goodness, because the Lost
Vikings need your help once again! In this excellent sequel to The Lost Vikings, the
three brothers (Erik the Swift, Baleog the Fierce and Olaf the Stout) are trying to
get back home and you need to guide them through. Two brand new characters (Fang the
Werewolf and Scorch the Dragon) also join the fray. As in The Lost Vikings, Norse
by Norsewest is a great puzzle game that plays like a perfect blend of The Humans
and Lemmings: each character has their own special talents that must be used in
concert, often with very precise timing, in order to pass the obstacles and go to the
next level. I don't want to spoil the plot or the surprises here, so let's just say
that if you think you've seen it all in The Lost Vikings, Norse by Norsewest is bigger,
better, and much more devious than the first game. If you like challenging puzzles,
especially ones that require almost superhuman reflexes, timing, and wit, then this
is your game. |
