Play Lost Vikings, The (Spain) Online

The Lost Vikings came out on the Super Nintendo in 1993, developed by Silicon & Synapse, who later became Blizzard. It was a time when puzzle platformers were finding their footing on the system, and this one stood out by making you manage a whole team instead of just one hero.

You control three vikings, each with a unique ability: Erik runs and jumps, Baleog fights with a sword and bow, and Olaf blocks attacks with his shield. The goal is to guide all three to the exit in each level, switching between them to overcome obstacles. You explore screen by screen, solving environmental puzzles that require careful timing and coordination, like using Olaf's shield as a platform or having Baleog clear a path of enemies. The pacing is deliberate, and the difficulty comes from keeping everyone alive while executing multi-step plans. It feels like solving a tactile, moving puzzle where every mistake costs you.
