About the Game

You are Birger, a warrior bound to the fading gods of Jordenheim and armed with a colossal axe. When faiths collide and the Shroud bleeds into the mortal realm, you must carve a path through shadows, ruins, and myths to uncover the truth behind a world on the edge of change.

Birger’s Saga is a 2D action-adventure rooted in the universe of the Jordenheim tabletop RPG. Built on smooth side-scrolling combat and atmospheric exploration, it blends the feel of classic adventures with the weight of Norse legend.

What Awaits You

  • Axe-Driven Combat: Swing heavy, dodge fast, and string together attacks that feel as sharp as they look.

  • Exploration with Purpose: Hidden paths, branching routes, and secrets woven into each stage.

  • Norse Mythology Atmosphere: Encounter foes and stories shaped by the Elder Gods and the new faiths that challenge them.

  • Accessible Yet Rewarding: Quick to learn, satisfying to master—built for evenings where story and action meet.

  • A Saga to Remember: Inspired by the Jordenheim tabletop RPG, with lore and atmosphere that carry beyond the battlefield.

Whether you once cut your teeth on Prince of Persia or are stepping into Norse myth for the first time, Birger’s Saga is built for evenings where story, action, and nostalgia meet.

The saga begins February 2026. We will be opening Playtests shortly, we look forward to seeing you all there!
