The Lost Vikings Developer: Silicon & Synapse Publisher: Interplay Year: 1993 Rating: 8/10 Review: First of all I have to say that this game is very original - or have you ever seen a game that mixes platform and puzzle elements and it's starred by three vikings. This probably sounds a bit weird but believe me The Lost Vikings is a pretty good game. So you have three vikings who you have to control in this game - Eric, Olaf and Baleog. This vikings are having bad luck because they're kidnapped by aliens. And it's your task to help them out from the prison and to gather all of them to the exit point. When this is done, you'll get to the next level. All three vikings have two special skills. Eric is able to jump and break through the walls. Olaf has a wooden shield which he can use to stop for example laser beams. The shield can also be used as a parachute. Baleog is the only one who is able to kill enemies, he has a sword for close combat and bow and arrow for long range attacks. By compaining these skills you should be able to finish all the levels. But I can tell you that it's not going to be easy to play through all 37 levels. And remember, when you're playing the game for the first time, read the info given to you from the small question mark boxes. Also remember to write down a password given to you after each completed level, so you don't have to replay those levels when playing the game next time. The Lost Vikings also looks and sounds good - graphics are nice and colorful and the sound effects are above usual puzzle game sounds. Overall the game is addictive and original puzzle game.
