Game: pick the cleanest pair of feet, like the goddess Skaði, before time runs out.

Tap the game to open it fullscreen. On a computer, Esc exits; on a phone, use the ✕ button.

How to play

A row of feet shows beneath the curtain. Tap the spotless pair before the time bar runs out; each round brings more pairs. There are five rounds, and three mistakes end the game.

The story behind it

In the myth, the gods let Skaði choose a husband by the feet alone, and she picks Njörðr thinking he is Baldr. The spots and the time limit are made up for the game. Read the story in Skaði chooses a husband by his feet: the mountain goddess who wanted Baldr and got Njörðr.
