Vikings Row!

iOS iPhone

Everyone loves Bjorn & his Vikings crew! Check out the amazing reviews below:

Gamezebo (4/5 Stars): "Such a simple game lives and dies by its control system, and Vikings Row's is as fresh and as subtle as they come. The Vikings might be long-gone, but this new digital invasion should be welcomed with open arms." http://bit.ly/cyMilg

Touch Arcade: "It uses a really clever control mechanic, has a wonderful art style, and a ton of content to play through including earning medals for each level and unlocking achievements. Every once in a while a game comes along that just feels right on this platform, and Vikings Row! is one of those games." http://bit.ly/96YDov

Pocket Gamer: "Adding to the experience are various sail customization options for your boat, and an achievement system, which seems to be an I-play special. Together with neat presentation, it all adds up to a nice little package." http://bit.ly/95yliE

Gizmodo: “It's harder than I thought (to be a virtual Viking), which means it was a whole lot of fun.” http://gizmo.do/bGn6RX

148 Apps (4/5 Stars): “What makes Vikings Row! special is the way that the app goes about letting you control the ship. Instead of some kind of arbitrary accelerometer system, the game uses a control system that mirrors the way the Vikings would actually be rowing.” http://bit.ly/9V4Hfa

Game On Mac: “Retailing for under a buck, arcade Viking players can't lose.” http://bit.ly/9HaTCX

Touch My Apps: “There are also hidden challenges that will allow you to earn more than 15 awards. It might not be a pirate’s life for them, but it still sounds like fun.” http://bit.ly/d7xZ86
