About the Game

Ragnarök - The Gods twilight

Mount Ymir is an Isle covered in forest and nature interspersed with strange brutalist structures throughout. You are tasked with exploring this dark and atmospheric landscape by the truly titanic World serpent that ever looms over the isle. Your goal is to retrieve Potions of undeath created by the witches of midgard in order to revive the aesir god Baldur Odinson in an effort to postpone the coming end of the world. Ragnarök.

Hrafn Óðins - Odin's raven

The allfather hunches on his throne inconsolable. His duties forgotten. His beast un-fed :- starved. Hugin and Munin search midgard for any meat not yet eaten. They search for you

Andsetinn - Haunted

As the apocalypse lies on the horizon the souls of the dead wander the isle. Bitter that they could not reach Valhalla they now hunt the living and cry out to Odin when they find you. Be aware, their screams reverberate so loud that the allfathers crows become ravenous and hunt you. Stay away from the draugr of Midgard.

Völvur - Witches

In your efforts to postpone the end times you must acquire the potions of undeath created by witches that once walked upon midgard. With them in hand you may approach the body of the dead god and complete your task

Of prose edda

Before everything there was Ginnungagap :- nothing. from it came Ymir the progenitor of all. And of his body came the world when Odin and his brothers slew him like a wretched beast. His blood became the ocean and his flesh the soil. They planted his hair in the earth and tossed his brain into the sky creating the clouds above the Isle of Mount ymir.
