The Lost Vikings (Video Game)	comment	In a frozen village in the far north, three Vikings of great skill and strength live quiet lives, spending their days hunting for meat in the surrounding woods. They are Erik the Swift, known far and wide for his great speed and incredible jumping ability; Baleog the Fierce, whose skill with a bow and sword allows him to crush anything in his path; and Olaf the Stout, who carries a shield and is strong enough to carry a full-grown man on top of it.Life is good and they hope they don't ever have to leave their village.One cold night, the trio finds themselves kidnapped by an evil green alien known as Tomator, who wants to use the Vikings as exhibits in his intergalactic freak show. The trio aren't about to take this lying down and immediately bust out. Their escape attempt goes a bit awry, however, resulting in them being hurled through time. It's up to you to lead them home.The Lost Vikings, a 1992 video game developed by Silicon & Synapse (the team that would later become Blizzard Entertainment), is a hard one to classify. At first glance it looks like a simple platformer, but it's more complicated than that — two of your characters can't even jump. Puzzles are definitely a big part of the gameplay, but it's not entirely cerebral — in later levels it's a challenge just to stay alive. It's more accurately called a "puzzle-platformer", as the goal is to lead all three Vikings (who you can switch between at any time) safely through each level to the exit. Each character has his own set of abilities which he can use to help the team progress through the level: Erik can jump to higher ledges and use his helmet to bash through fragile walls; Baleog can use his weapons to defeat enemies and flip switches; and Olaf can use his shield to block enemy attacks and as a hang glider to slowly drop to lower levels.The big draw to the series is how each character's abilities are used in unique ways and in combination with each other to allow for safe progress. For example, one early puzzle requires Olaf to use his shield as a platform for Erik to jump from, giving him the extra height he needs to vault a locked gate. On the other side, Erik can find a key to unlock the door and allow his companions to progress. Some of the puzzles are quite devious, and the game is ruled by Trial-and-Error Gameplay. Lots of it. Lots of it.In addition, the game has a quirky sense of humor of the type rarely seen in this era of video games (which were usually lucky to get any text at all). It's an absolute joy to guide the bumbling, bickering Vikings through each stage.In 1997, a long-awaited sequel named Lost Vikings 2 was released (initially for the SNES and later remade for the Playstation, Saturn and PC, under the title Norse by Norsewest: The Return of the Lost Vikings). In this game, the Vikings are again ambushed by Tomator, but the Vikings respond by mugging Tomator's minions and taking their gear, giving them new abilities. Erik gains rocket boots (which allow him to Double Jump) and a scuba helmet (which removes his Super Drowning Skills); Baleog takes a lightsaber and a bionic arm (which allow him to attack in eight directions, Belmont-style, and swing off certain gems), and Olaf earns a new cybernetic shield which allows him to shrink and boosts his flatulence to frightening levels. On top of that, the Vikings pick up two new characters in their travels: Fang the werewolf, who can run, jump, attack enemies, and Wall Jump (and comically be mistaken for every furry animal under the sun but a wolf); and Scorch the magic dragon (who has never seen the sea, but would evidently like to check it out), who can fly and breathe fire. To keep the gameplay simple, however, the two newbies would replace one or more of the Vikings every so often, allowing the player to control no more than three characters at a time. The packaging is different, but the game's the same — use the Vikings' abilities to lead them safely through stages full of death traps until you got to Tomator.Fun and funny, but surprisingly deep; well worth a try.The series also contains◊ a Shout-Out or two to Blizzard's more famous series, Warcraft, which later returned the favor. Eventually, the trio made a comeback by being playable in Heroes of the Storm.Not to be confused with the Starcraft II Mini-Game "Lost Viking", nor the Dethklok song of the same name.

Considerably, Erik doesn't know what are donuts, and neither does the Transylvanian witch. Then there's one of the many retry messages in which the protagonists discuss (not in a preset order) whether they should build a rec room, relax and rent some videos, right until one of them asks: "What's a video?"

Or for that matter his sword in the first game.

The active Viking stands on a cliff overlooking the boat's journey. Of course, nobody will be there if you got all the Vikings killed. And if you choose to continue, the dead Vikings return to life via thunderbolt. Finally, if none of the Vikings died (such as if the level was made Unwinnable and the player chose to give up), all three would be on the cliff and no burning boat would be on the water. In the sequel, instead they are in a purgatory-like location and a valkyrie revives whoever is dead.

The same type of death may also yield different animations from each of the vikings. For example: death by quicksand; Erik panics as he futilely tries to free himself, Olaf waves a meek "bye-bye" to the player, and Baleog just looks at the player with contempt and shrugs.

The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_ef491a40	comment	Signpost Tutorial: The game uses squares with question marks that show an instructional text box when pressed. They are scattered throughout the first few levels before introducing every new ability. The very first such block activates automatically to explain how to read the other blocks.

The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_f3cf30d9	type	Arbitrary Headcount Limit
The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_f3cf30d9	comment	Arbitrary Headcount Limit: 3 max in the sequel. Lampshaded constantly. Justified in-universe by the teleportation magic/technology used by the various characters helping our heroes along being amateur or otherwise faulty; they all get where they're going eventually, but periodically a flub-up sends them off to the bean aisle. The sisters on the pirate ships aren't sending you straight to where you need to go because they wanna get rich. It takes a threat to convince them to get you there.

The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_f5a22215	type	Ambidextrous Sprite
The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_f5a22215	comment	Ambidextrous Sprite: Played straight throughout both games, but curiously, Baleog's portrait in the first game shows his sword in the opposite hand from his sprites. In the second game, Baleog's robotic arm switches arms depending on which way he's facing. A bit more obvious when climbing ladders.

The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_f62cc38a	comment	Stone Wall: Olaf's shield can block most attacks, but he has to rely on either Baleog or his surroundings to actually dispose of enemies for him.

The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_f6dc47f7	comment	Ambiguously Related: The manual for the first game refers to the three vikings as brothers, but this is never mentioned anywhere else and several pieces of in-game dialogue imply that this isn't actually the case (the vikings refer to each other as friends rather than brothers and Erik refers to his father as his father rather than their father).

The Lost Vikings (Video Game) / int_f7a1c539	comment	Three Plus Two: The three vikings are joined by the non-humans Fang the werewolf and Scorch the dragon in the second game. The two diverge from the strict specialization of the main trio's abilities by each having a way of attacking and moving vertically.
