Unlike a lot of brawlers though, Zombie Vikings does have a bit of story going for it besides the overall plot. Zombie Vikings is a classic side-scrolling beat ’em up brawler that will pit up to four players up against all manners of bizarre yet familiar creatures. Rest assured there is quests to be had as you battle through 25+ levels in the campaign that take you through some rather interesting locations including a gingerbread swamp in one of eight worlds each as morbid and the next. Since Thor is too busy to deal with the trickster, Odin summons the four Vikings: Seagurd, Caw-kaa, Gunborg and Hedgy back as well… the titular Zombie Vikings not for a grand quest but just to get his eye back. In Zombie Vikings, Loki is up to his old tricks again this time angering Odin by stealing his one good magic eyeball. This even more skewed take on Norse mythology combines Norse figureheads, Vikings (both living and undead), weird creatures and a liberal does of pop cultural references and humor that keeps going right until the very end. Take Zombie Vikings, the newest entry by Zoink! Games, the minds behind the clever and equally funny “Stick it to The Man”, for instance for the Xbox One. Not that’s a bad thing…oh no quite the opposite in fact. It must be something in the air this year because its Viking season everywhere I look in the gaming scene.
