Völgarr the Viking

About this game

Völgarr the Viking

In Völgarr the Viking, the player controls the titular character, who has been charged by Odin with a quest to defeat an evil dragon. Völgarr is armed with a sword, a spear and a wooden shield at the start. Along with hitting enemies at range, the spear can also be used to create temporary platforms. Treasure chests located throughout the level will contain power-ups that will grant Völgarr new abilities and, most importantly, enable him to take more damage. In his initial state, Völgarr can sustain a single unblocked hit at the cost of his shield, and a second hit will force the player to return to the last checkpoint, either the beginning of the level or the midpoint of the level. The player has an unlimited number of chances to complete the main levels.

Enemies drop coins and jewels when defeated, which the player can collect. If Völgarr is defeated, he will lose a portion of those coins. Only coins in hand when Völgarr completes a level are kept permanently. Levels can be replayed for additional coins and for faster completion times. By completing a level without losing a life, the player can obtain special key items that unlock additional bonus levels, which ultimately lead to the game's best-possible ending
