The story revolves around viking cats attacking a mouse village, with a poignant subplot involving a child desperately trying to keep their teddy bear safe amidst the chaos. While the narrative is presented through visually impressive scenery and cleverly structured acts, it remains somewhat simplistic and focused on battle scenes without graphic violence. Overall, the storyline adds a layer of depth to the gameplay, blending humor and seriousness in a unique way.
“The heartless developers really wanted you to notice this little child who is running for their life because they kept giving you a quest to find the teddy bear the child was trying to make sure came with them.”
“The scenery is actually quite impressive and nice looking; a story of vikings departing and then going on to invade a village is told through the scenery as you go through levels.”
“In fact, they are deliberately sectioned off into acts, so once you finish act one, act two is revealed, which is an extension of the scene in act one. I thought this was quite clever, as it kind of revealed a story along the way.”
“The heartless developers really wanted you to notice this little child who is running for their lives because they kept giving you a quest to find the teddy bear the child was trying to make sure came with them.”
“The story in the scenes is not fully fleshed out.”
“The storyline definitely feels more serious this time and sadder, at least for me, but then again, these are kitty vikings.”

The gameplay has received a strong 9/10 rating for its satisfying mechanics, which include a hidden object feature that allows players to search for items across three categories, enhancing engagement. However, it has been critiqued with a 4/10 for its lack of historical accuracy. Overall, the game introduces new mechanics that add depth, though the experience is relatively short, with initial gameplay taking about 15 minutes.
“This one has added a few more mechanics to make it even more interesting.”
“The hidden object mechanic is great (you have to find items in three categories, and you can choose the next category when you complete one of the previous ones).”
“The mechanics are the same: searching a large image for three types of objects and, when one of these is completed, being able to choose another category to look for from a choice of three.”
“Finding all the objects will take you about 15 minutes. It's short, but it essentially shows the mechanics of the game and what to expect for the following levels.”
“The mechanics are repetitive: searching a large image for three types of objects, and when one of these is completed, you can choose another category to look for from a choice of three.”
