How to play

Mímir’s head asks five questions about the story. Tap the right answer (or use keys 1, 2 and 3). With three mistakes, the well water clouds over and you lose.

The story behind it

In the Norse sources, Mímir’s well lies under a root of Yggdrasil, and Mímir’s head appears in the Ynglinga saga. The questions in the game are made up. Read the story in Mímir and the well of wisdom: the eye Odin gave and the head that kept speaking.
