Gameplay
When Vikings Attack! plays like an arena melee-brawler game.The weapons used in the game are thrown objects. Players control a small group of civilians fighting hordes of vikings. The objective is to pick up objects and throw them in order to knock out enemies. A single hit is required to knock out an opponent's troop. Each time an object collides with a figure, they are knocked out and excluded from the group; larger or wide objects can knock out an entire group, resulting in the player being eliminated. Lost civilians can be replaced by recruiting stray people roaming around the arena. Special items can also be thrown to perform special effects, such as explosive bombs for an area of effect attack.
When Vikings Attack! has a campaign mode supporting up to four player co-op. The game has a multiplayer option with game modes such as last man standing and survival mode, along with a "collection extra" mode for viewing collected citizens of different outfits and movies.
