How to play

Warriors fall from the battlefield, one after another. Those with a raven feather go to Valhalla (left); those with a golden necklace go to Fólkvangr (right). Tap the right side of the screen, or use the arrow keys, for the first in line. Make 20 right choices and miss at most 3 times.

The story behind it

In the Norse sources, the valkyries choose warriors killed in battle; Odin receives part of them in Valhalla, and Freyja chooses the others for Fólkvangr. The raven-and-necklace rule is made up for the game. Read the story in Valkyries and Valhalla: whom Odin and Freyja receive among those slain in battle.
