About

Nidhogg is an indie title published and developed by Messhof that was released on January 13, 2014. The game falls within the action and sports genres while offering both single-player and multi-player options. Players can experience this award-winning fencing tug-of-war which features graceful acrobatics alongside clumsy stabs. The core gameplay involves a two-player showdown of fast-paced fencing and melee attacks where IRL yelling and excitement may occur. Matches rely on a series of kills to grant right-of-way rather than being decided by a single kill. Advantages are often fleeting as new opponents continually spawn in your way during the match. Combat utilizes a variety of fencing maneuvers including lunges, parries, and dirty tricks like throwing your sword. When unarmed, players press forward with punches, sweep kicks, dive kicks, rolls, and wall jumps. The combat arena stretches in both directions, though besting an opponent only gains you ground toward the goal-zone. The main story length is approximately one hour while the main story plus extras extends to three hours. A completionist playthrough takes about six hours to finish. Each arena holds different strategic forms for players to utilize during their sessions.

Besides, there are worse things in life than being encouraged to get your money's worth from Nidhogg; to put the TV somewhere everyone can see it, to get some pads linked up and throw a local multiplayer party. Rounds of Starwhal: Just the Tip and Samurai Gunn, leading up to a Nidhogg tournament? That evening would be priceless.

A brilliant marriage of mechanics, level design and music that will be played and talked about for years to come.

Nidhogg's sword-fighting is exhilarating and exquisitely balanced. Against friends, its appeal is perhaps limitless.

Pleasure from the single-player is derived entirely from your appreciation of time-based speed running. Multiplayer is where the game fulfills its potential

Nidhogg isn't too satisfying alone, but it offers frantically enjoyable sword-dueling action with local friends.
