How it feels
A punishing 2D action-platformer where you guide a near-dead Norse warrior through mythic, pixelated realms in a linear quest.

What players say
Players praise the variety of level mechanics and the nostalgic, handcrafted feel, but warn the difficulty is punishing with frequent one-hit deaths. Controls feel clunky to some, especially on keyboard, while others find the gameplay fluid. The goofy art and voice acting divide opinion, but most agree the game is fun for retro platformer fans.
