How to play

Drag your finger (or the mouse) to move the herder. The reindeer flee from anyone close; guide eight of the ten into the pen on the right in seventy seconds, without losing three.

The story behind it

Ohthere, a Norwegian from the north, told King Alfred of England that he kept reindeer. The herding in the game is made up. Read the story in Ohthere and the reindeer: an Arctic Norwegian’s account to King Alfred.
