How to play

Hold your finger, or the space bar, to raise the fury; release to lower it. When the enemy gets close, the fury must be in the red band: too little and you are wounded; too much and you burn. Defeat 12 enemies; you have 3 lives.

The story behind it

The sagas describe berserkers who howled, bit their shields and seemed not to feel iron. What that really was is debated by historians. The fury gauge is made up for the game. Read the story in Berserkers: the bearskin warriors, the fury the sagas describe and the Icelandic law that banned it.
