Die For Valhalla! manages to be something quite different while still tickling that old-school side-scrolling beat 'em up vibe.
"A few years ago, I attended Pax Prime and interviewed Monster Couch about their upcoming game, Die for Valhalla!. I was impressed by the art style, the fun pick-up and play nature of the game, and the variety that was shown off for each Viking class. While these aspects remain as strong as ever, the repetitive nature of how the game plays brings it down to being a fairly mediocre and forgettable experience. " Jeff Young - Analog Stick Gaming
Gareth writes: "What with God of War, Hellblade and now Die for Vahalla, I feel like I've moved to Scandinavia, taken up residence next to Thor and live just around the block from Odin.
This game however is not frightened to poke a tongue out and give a crafty wink to the whole mythology surrounding everything Norse. But is it worth a table at the great hall of Valhalla? Or is it doomed to that lonely cold walk to the realm of Hel?"
review by Gonçalo Lopes:
"Die For Valhalla! is a successful mix of several genres that mainly presents itself as a lengthy side-scrolling beat-'em-up and just like the majority of such games is best enjoyed with friends along the way. There is still a lot to chew for the lonely solo player out there, so if you into the genre and Norse mythology, do consider giving this one a possession. Odin would approve and so do we."
