In Midgard Saga, the player controls a group of four vikings on their quest to return Odin’s magical mead. They must travel from the mortal realm, Midgard, to the realm of the gods, Asgard. Along the way, these vikings encounter a variety of enemies and challenges. Before each encounter, the player can customize each viking’s skills by choosing from a pool of 25 unique abilities. This allows for replayability and for the player to carry out multiple strategies to victory.
