The Lost Vikings Game

Ever wished you could control three heroes at once? The Lost Vikings for SEGA Genesis turns that wild idea into a brilliantly clever puzzle-platformer! You take charge of Erik the Swift, Baleog the Fierce, and Olaf the Stout—three hilariously mismatched Vikings kidnapped by aliens—and use their unique skills to escape each level. Erik dashes and jumps, Baleog slashes enemies with his sword (or shoots them with arrows), and Olaf blocks hazards with his trusty shield. The catch? You’ve gotta switch between them on the fly, combining their abilities like a Norse-themed heist team.

This Blizzard classic (yes, that Blizzard, before Warcraft and Diablo) is a masterclass in teamwork and brain-teasing fun. With its quirky humor, vibrant levels, and a soundtrack that’ll stick in your head, The Lost Vikings feels like playing a cartoon—one where you’ll die laughing (or just die, because some puzzles are brutal). If you love games that reward smarts over reflexes, this 90s gem is your golden ticket.
