Journey to Valhalla with the Ancient Viking Game, Hnefatafl!

Hnefatafl, a captivating Scandinavian board game predating chess, boasts numerous medieval European variations. Two armies clash: the invading black forces seeking to capture the white king, while the white army strives to protect and escape with their king.

Often dubbed the "Game of the Vikings," Hnefatafl evokes historical narratives, from Muscovite invasions of Sweden to Viking raids on Britain. The core remains constant: the king's survival.

Despite simple rules, Hnefatafl offers deep strategic depth and rewards tactical prowess. Outmaneuver opponents, anticipate moves, set traps, and force surrender. Will you claim victory and riches, or will the king's loyal guard ensure his escape?

Play offline or online, crafting custom variations from over 200,000 possibilities! Enjoy cross-platform play on iOS, Windows, and Linux, accessing all matches across devices using a single account. Asynchronous multiplayer allows flexible gameplay.

Valhalla awaits!
