A Viking, a dragon and a forest full of trouble
A Viking is flying out of a dangerous forest on the back of an orange dragon, and Viking Escape puts you at the controls. Goblins, flying beasts and fierce birds come at you between the tree trunks, while spiked balls dangle in the way. Your dragon spits a stream of fire to clear a path, and columns of coins and the odd gem hang in the air for the taking.
How to play Viking Escape
- Press play on the title screen and take off on the dragon.
- Fly up, down, forward and back with the arrow buttons to line up shots and slip past the spiked balls.
- Press the fire button to send a stream of flame at the monsters, each of which has a health bar showing how close it is to going down.
- Collect coins and gems for cash, and keep an eye on the dragon's own health bar and the clock in the top corner.

Tips to play better
- Fire early; monsters are easier to burn while they are still some distance away.
- Give the hanging spiked balls plenty of room, and pass above or below them rather than squeezing by.
- Sweep straight up or down through a column of coins to collect the whole stack in one pass.
- Finish off a monster whose health bar is nearly empty before turning your fire on the next one.

Viking Escape FAQ
What does the dragon do in Viking Escape?
It is both your ride and your weapon. You fly it through the forest in four directions, and its fire breath knocks out the monsters in the way.
What should I watch out for?
Goblins, birds and other flying creatures, plus spiked balls hanging between the trees. Burn the monsters before they get close and fly around the spikes.
