Viking Game Review

VIKING: Battle for Asgard

(Xbox 360) SEGA – 18+

Viking is a brutal hack and slasher game but with the occasional strategic sections to do.

The game has some very good graphics and some graphics that could be improved for example the graphics on the close up of skarin and the in game videos are excellent whereas graphics on the scenery such as trees and hills could be improved. The game is a story about Skarin who is a blood thirsty Viking who is seeking revenge on his fathers death. Skarin and Freya are in a struggle against the underworld leader Hel and her army of undead Vikings.

Although the gameplay is awfully repetitive the game is still througherly enjoyable. The game consists of three huge free roam islands in which you have to free Vikings and eventually launch and attack on the islands main barracks. The fight on the main barracks are immensely enjoyable.

However the game Viking may sound like a blood thirsty hack and slasher type of game but the game has a deep and rich mythical and magical element to it as you use the power of dragons and summon magic from the gods.

The gameplay is however very old fashioned as most of they attacks
