Viking's drakkars

Vikings drakkars is more Russian shovelware pollution from the scammers at Azimut. This is barely a game... it's a 2 button endless runner where you "drive" a longboat endlessly up the screen avoiding(?) blobs... it's unclear what the controls are, what the blobs do, if you're supposed to hit them or miss them... this is just pure garbage put together probably in an afternoon, then quickly dumped on Steam as a nasty cash grab. This is pretty obviously an asset flip because the Russian scammers here already put this game on Steam as "Pixel Car". This is just a reskin of the same game. Why flip an asset once when you can flip it twice? Ugh. This is just polluting Steam with garbage. azimuth team have a known history of trying to scam people into paying them money for someone else's work, through this account or through closely linked/alt accounts. One example of azimuth team doing this is [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/828230]Dungeons of the dead[/url], which is really the "[url=https://learn.unity.com/project/2d-roguelike-tutorial]2D Roguelike Tutorial[/url]" asset, written by the actual developers, Unity Technologies. Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was …

I felt like a true viking. you will laugh, you will cry, you will have a headache if you leave the music on

Nothing redeeming from this game.

Viking’s drakkars is a small, straightforward indie title built around a simple premise: guide a Viking longship down a hazardous river while avoiding obstacles and collecting treasures. Developed and published by azimuth team, the game embraces minimalism both in mechanics and presentation, offering an arcade-like experience reminiscent of classic reflex-based river runners rather than a richly detailed Viking adventure. At its core, the game asks very little of the player—steer left, steer right, survive the run—but that narrow focus defines both its charm and its limitations. The gameplay is built around a fast-scrolling river filled with drifting logs, debris, and environmental hazards. As your drakkar moves forward, you constantly adjust your path to avoid collisions while trying to pick up chests scattered along the river. The controls are deliberately simple, allowing even inexperienced players to grasp the basics within seconds. This accessibility makes Viking’s drakkars an inviting option for brief, casual play sessions where the goal is not long-term progression but instant pick-up-and-play action. The addition of local co-op, enabling two players to pilot their own boat…

[h2] Well then... [/h2] I don't know what to categorize this game as... Endless runner maybe? [i]Viking's drakkars[/i] sees you manning two viking ships, helping them collect chests whilst avoiding logs. There are four lanes, and each ship has two lanes, so you press one button to swap between lanes for each of them. There's also a 2 player mode, which I didn't try much of, but if you opt to play it, there'll be four ships, crazy right? The game is far too bland and uninspired to be worth picking up. After you reach 100 chests, I see no reason why you should ever open this game again.

Two Cars ripoff, exact same gameplay but this can be very challenging due to the obstacles. Beyond achievements there are not enough reasons to play to be honest.
