Volgarr the Viking is a game that takes us back to the golden age of gaming, when you needed months to acquire the skills you would require to make it to the end. If you're not willing to keep trying to beat a game that will punish you for each new mistake, than Volgarr the Viking is not for you.
"Remember when games were tough? Return to the Golden Age of arcades with an all-NEW hardcore action experience that pulls no punches. Volgarr the Viking possesses all the hallmarks of the true classics - simple controls, high challenge, and meticulous design - combined with hand-made pixel animation, an epic soundtrack, and buckets of blood. Flex your gaming muscles and step into the arena with Volgarr the Viking. We dare you" is noted on GOG.com.
As you can imagine, the system requirements are pretty low for the game. Ubuntu 14.04 and Linux Mint 17.x are listed as requirements, but it's very likely that it will work on pretty much anything with a pulse. It's worth mentioning that this is a 32-bit game, and it has some dependencies: libc6:i386, libasound2:i386, libasound2-data:i386, libasound2-plugins:i386, and libsdl2-2.0-0:i386.
Enjoy!
