The Lost Vikings

The game uses a side-scrolling perspective. Players control Eric, Baleog, and Olaf, each with unique skills: Eric jumps and charges, Baleog attacks enemies and breaks obstacles, and Olaf uses a shield to block attacks and act as a platform. Progress depends on solving stage puzzles with switches, lifts, teleporters, traps, and enemies. All three Vikings must reach the exit, so the player constantly switches between them and uses one character to protect, lift, or enable the others.

Eric the Swift

The most mobile Viking, specializing in jumps and charge attacks.

Baleog the Fierce

Armed with a sword and bow, he handles combat and breaks certain barriers.

Olaf the Stout

Uses a shield to block attacks and help teammates reach higher places.

Study each room before moving. Use Eric for long gaps, Olaf for defense and support, and Baleog to clear enemies or destructible obstacles. In tricky sections, secure a safe route first and then bring the other Vikings through one by one. Keep the group separated only when necessary, and avoid wasting health on reckless jumps or unnecessary fights.

Tips and tricks

• Switch characters often; many puzzles are solved by using the right Viking at the right moment.
• Olaf’s shield is both defense and a tool for platforming teammates.
• Baleog’s ranged attacks can make dangerous rooms much safer before you move the others.
