Join me as we explore one of Blizzard's (yes, that Blizzard) earlier video game efforts, The Lost Vikings! Released in 1992, The Lost Vikings was a puzzle platformer that had you navigate three Vikings, all with different skills, through a number of devious levels, all in the hopes of defeating the evil Tomator and returning home. Did we manage to save our Viking companions? Tune in to find out!

As our new podcast launches, join me to discuss the puzzle / platform title Lemmings, released back in 1991 for the Amiga and, eventually, other systems.
