Olaf the Stout, Erik the Swift and Baleog the Absolute Pan-Head Nutcase (Fierce. It probably gave him ulcers and guilty dreams. He probably didn't like himself very much for hyperspacing his way around galaxies 'borrowing' specimens, with a view to selling them back home to the interplanetary equivalent of Whipsnade Zoo. (There are also those large breasted aliens who Captain Kirk gets lumbered with teaching the meaning of love to, but we won't go into that here.) Tomator, the intergalactic life-form trader, was probably a good alien lumbered with a bad job. Just as there are different types of people, there are doubtless many types of alien good aliens, bad aliens and aliens who would be good but for one or two problems at home that they're trying to get their heads round. If one of the helmet-heads is all loaded up, give it over to his brawny bud.Īs my mother always said, aliens are just people with more eyes. However, you can switch items between Vikings. You can also pick up and use Bombs, Keys, Flaming Arrows (for Baleog), etc., but each Viking is limited to only four items apiece. Luckily, there's plenty throughout the stages to keep you going. If you happen to lose one of the little guys along the way, you must give up and start from the beginning of the level.Įach of the Vikes has three life bubbles, and you lose them by getting hit, falling long distances, or by stumbling into other mishaps.
Most of the puzzles require the skills of ALL THREE Vikings. Solving the puzzles that lead to the exits is really most of the fun, although the dialogue in this game is Standup Comic funny, too.
If you're having trouble getting across lava pits, use Baleog to shoot the stalactites.See something that you want but can't seem to find a way to get it? Look for dark patches in the rocks (which are actually entrances), position Olaf under them, and then lift Eric up onto the shield and into the stone passages.After you complete three levels, you find a warp into the next time period, which brings you ever closer to home. The areas covered by the three brothers vary from Tomator's ship to a Mesozoic maze. He runs and jumps, traverses areas inaccessible to his stout siblings and puts his hard head to use by knocking down walls. Olaf the Stout makes good use of his shield, whether it's to block enemy projectiles, help him hang glide through the air, or give Eric a lift up. For instance, Baleog the Fierce is an arrow-shootin', sword-swingin' warrior, who's able to knock off opponents and flick hard-to- reach switches. Using each of the Vikings' special skills, you must work the team through each level in search of the exit that will send you on to the next level. Working cooperatively, the Vikings help each other over seemingly insurmountable obstacles and bearish bevies of enemies, which range from futuristic fanatics to prehistoric pests. When reaching higher ground, have Olaf put his Shield up so Eric can move up onto it and then over to elevated surroundings.If a Vike misses y get nailed waiting for the next one. When using elevators, always put all three Vikings on at once before sending p or down.His shield can stop any attack and hold up any enemy. Now they must travel through different time periods trying their Dansk darndest to find a way back to their people. Seems the Tomator wanted the boys as specimens, but the boys had other plans. You try to help three Viking brothers - Olaf, Eric, and Baleog - return to their quiet Nordic life, which was interrupted by the intergalactic zookeeper, Tomator.
The Lost Vikings by Interplay is a one- or two-player action/adventure/puzzler that really gets your brain matter going. If they wanna get home, it's gonna be a race.Īnd help to get the Vikes back on their Nordic Track! Norse by Norse-West By a no-good, alien, outta-space rat pack.
