Volgarr the Viking (AKA: Völgarr the Viking) is an independent action game for multiple platforms, developed by Crazy Viking Studios and published by Adult Swim Games in 2013. It’s mainly inspired by classic side-scrolling hack and slash arcade video games from the 1980s like Rastan and Ghosts ‘n Goblins, and retains similar graphical style and difficulty level.

In game, players control a fierce Viking warrior to battle through challenging levels filled with enemies and obstacles. The game is known for its difficult gameplay and retro-inspired design, as well as memories of classic arcade games. Players must use precise timing and skill to progress through each level and defeat powerful bosses. As a result, it has received positive reviews for its challenging gameplay, satisfying combat mechanics, and nostalgic appeal.

Volgarr the Viking gives respect to classic challenging video games of the 8- and 16-bit era while delivering modern gameplay elements. It has rich game content, including 7 worlds, more than 30 maps, more than 40 unique traps and enemies, and multiple branch routes and endings. What sets it apart is its unforgiving difficulty level, requiring precise timing, strategic combat tactics, and quick reflexes to succeed. If you don’t have skillful operation and quick reaction, you are likely to be unable to move forward in front of various level traps.

Overall, Volgarr the Viking is a cleverly designed, difficult game with nostalgic visuals and intense gameplay, and offers a satisfying challenge for players craving a true test of skill and determination. The game’s level design encourages both meticulous planning and on-the-fly decision-making, creating a rewarding sense of accomplishment when you finally conquer a tough section.
