Viking Tiles

📝 Special Statement

Hark, mighty Norse Tactician! You are not merely playing a tile game; you are undertaking the legendary Valhalla Veto, a sacred quest to dismantle the great, chaotic Rune Monoliths left by the ancient Jötnar! ⚔️🛡️

The Saga of the Rune Monoliths: Clearing the Chaos

You stand amidst the frozen ruins of Midgard, where colossal, towering structures of Viking Rune Tiles block the path to glory! This is the Valhalla Veto, a daunting challenge where your mission is to systematically deconstruct these multi-layered, chaotic formations. Each layout is a unique, icy citadel—perhaps the Serpent’s Coil or the Longship’s Hull—demanding fierce concentration and strategic foresight! Your goal is total structural collapse: to banish every last rune and prove your worthiness to enter the halls of the gods! 🧊👑

The Mechanic of the Sacred Pair: The Top-Tile Rule

Your sole weapon is the Axe of Alignment, wielded by your keen, focused mind. To initiate a successful banishment, you must uphold the iron-clad Top-Tile Rule: You may only target and select tiles that are completely FREE—meaning they have no other tile directly resting on top of them! Only these Unshackled Runes can be moved! Once two such Free Tiles are identified, you must verify their identity: they must be a perfect, matching Sacred Pair—two identical symbols, whether it’s the Hammer of Thor or the fearsome Wolf of Fenrir! 🐺⚡️

The Cleansing Fire and the Path to Glory

When you successfully locate and match a Sacred Pair of Unshackled Runes, a burst of cleansing Viking Fire instantly consumes them! The pair doesn't just "remove"; they are VAPORIZED, leaving behind a cleared space and, more importantly, FREEING the tiles that were previously trapped beneath them! The gameplay is a race against the ever-increasing complexity of the monolith. You must constantly think ahead, strategically removing tiles to unlock those holding down the lower layers. Only by mastering the Top-Tile Rule and achieving total clearance of every colossal Rune Monolith will you earn the title of Valhalla’s Champion! Skål! 🍻🏆
