Nidhogg Review
Posted: 3 years ago, last updated 3 months ago.
Author: @GeekDadGamer and Jo Robertson.
Overview
It looks like a fighting game but is, in fact, more like fencing crossed with a tug-of-war. It's frantic and funny as players try and time their attacks. At times like graceful acrobatics while at others it's just frantic clumsy stabs.
Nidhogg II extends the fighting options but includes frequent arcade-style violence.
