This is a hack 'n' slash game from the creators of the absurd Stick It to the Man! from 2014. The action starts when Loki decides to steal the last magic eye of Odin. In desperation, the latter summons four disgusting zombie-Vikings to life with the task of retrieving the incredibly valuable artifact. The players will have four playable characters at their disposal: Gunnborg, Hedgy, Seagurd and Caw-kaa. Each Viking has different skills that allow them to quickly deal with hordes of enemies. In combat, we will make use of 40 kinds of weapons with rather creative names, such as Stinknir or Blunt Fish Trauma. The player may also use the severed, vomiting heads of his companions as an efficient and effective defense tool. Furthermore, the undead warriors can be equipped with runes that allow them to make double jumps. What is important, it offers cooperation mode for four players, both in split-screen and via the Internet. Joint gameplay significantly enhances the playing experience, because the participants can, for example, merge into a one huge zombie-Viking or perform more complex attacks against their enemies. It's characterized by an incredibly colorful, irrationally humorous story created with the cooperation of Zach Winersmith, a well-known comedy writer. The whole is complemented by very pretty, hand-drawn graphics that will most certainly appeal to the fans of slightly crazy productions. |
