SNES - The Lost Vikings Box Art FrontSNES - The Lost Vikings Box Art Back

Three Vikings, Eric the Swift, Olaf the Stout and Baleog the Fierce, were kidnapped by the alien Tomator, the evil Croutonian ruler, who is collecting unique life forms to display in his gallery. The three Vikings will have to combine their unique skills to defeat Tomator, as well as a vast array of aliens, robots, giant snails, big lizards and more. The Lost Vikings is a side-scrolling platform puzzle game with a twist. Instead of one character who can jump, run, shoot, collect items, flip switches and so on, there are three different characters, each with his own skills. Eric the Swift can jump, run and bash through walls with his tough helmet. Olaf the Stout has a shield which can block attacks, function as an air glider or as a step to stand on. Baleog the Fierce can shoot things with his arrows (including switches) or kill things with his sword. The player has to use the three Vikings as a team if he wants to get past the increasingly difficult levels and puzzles. The player controls one Viking at a time, but can switch between them at any point. The Vikings have limited space in their inventory which they can use to keep various items. Each Viking has three health points, and if he loses them all from confrontations with dangers, he dies (some threats kill instantly), and the level must be restarted.

Additional Information

Fresh from winning the village hunting contest, the mighty Vikings Olaf the Stout, Baelog the Fierce, and Eric the Swift wallow in their hard-fought victory. Little do they realize their heroics have caught the attention of the vile and despicable intergalactic zookeeper, Tomator. Hovering above our heroes' abode, Tomator teleports Olaf and company aboard his spaceship. Thanks to a transporter malfunction, the Vikings materialize in the main hall of the zookeeper's craft rather than in his specimen laboratory. Speeding through the galaxy towards Tomator's home planet, the three Vikings are truly lost in space. Their only hope is to find their way, using various hunting skills, through time and space back to Earth.

Each Viking has different abilities and weapons, and you must strategically guide all three of them to the end of each stage in order to progress through the game. Once Viking alone cannot finish any of the levels; they must cooperate. You can alternate between the Vikings, or you and a friend can work together. As you play the game you will find helpful items such as shields, bombs, keys, flaming arrows, gravity boots, and food. Areas to explore include Preshistoria, Egypt, and Wacky World. There are 37 levels in all.
