How to play

While the moon shines, Glámr’s eyes glow and paralyse: do not attack. When the clouds cover the moon, tap (or press the space bar) to strike. If you strike with the moon visible, you lose courage; if you wait too long, Glámr comes closer. Land six blows; you have three points of courage.

The story behind it

In Grettir’s saga, Glámr has a gaze that freezes people with fear, and the fight takes place on a moonlit night among clouds. The game mechanic is made up. Read the story in Grettir and the undead Glámr: the saga in which the moon reveals a ghost’s eyes.
