This means that there is usually only one answer per puzzle, so it's just a matter of going through the predetermined solutions to finish the game (forget about replay value-you're only going to play this game once), I would've liked for Lost Vikings 2 to offer multiple ways of completing each level, forcing the game to involve a bit more thought than it does. The problem lies in the fact that every stage is very straightforward and linear. After the initial lessons are over, it's up to you to use your gained knowledge to finish each level.

This makes the game so easy to get into, Interplay can forget about a game manual if they wanted. The beginning levels are full of help boxes like in Super Mario World that will teach you the ABCs of navigating through the obstacles. The goal of the game is to maneuver two or three characters at a time through several stages of tricks and traps. Lost Vikings 2 is a slow paced experience that's part puzzle, part strategy. If you are an action-oriented gamer, or if you are short in the patience department, then you may want to pass this cart on by. Lost Vikings 2 serves to remind us that simple, low-key titles can provide just as much, if not more fun than bigger, more prominent 32- or 64-Bit games.
