The Lost Vikings is a puzzle game released in 1993 for the Super Nintendo platform. Players control three distinct Viking characters, each possessing unique abilities, to navigate through a series of levels filled with traps and enemies. The main objective is to safely guide all three Vikings to the level's exit by solving puzzles that require careful coordination of their individual skills.
The gameplay features a moderate pace, blending strategic thinking with platforming elements. Players must switch between the Vikings to utilize their specific talents—such as jumping, attacking, or blocking—to overcome obstacles and enemies. This mechanic demands both timing and problem-solving to progress.
A distinctive feature of The Lost Vikings is the necessity to use all three characters simultaneously, requiring players to plan moves in advance and often backtrack to assist each Viking’s progress. This interplay between characters creates a unique puzzle experience that emphasizes teamwork and strategy within a single-player framework.
