Can You Escape the Norse Underworld?: An Interactive Mythological Adventure

by Gina Kammer

Overview

You are in the Underworld—the land of the dead from Norse mythology. Ruled by the goddess Hel, it’s not a place Viking warriors would choose to go to when they die. The Underworld isn’t an easy place to leave. The gods themselves can rarely escape this cold, dark land. Can you find a way out of this dangerous place before it’s too late? Will you bargain with the gods to let you leave? YOU CHOOSE how your story will be told. The choices you make will decide the fate that awaits you in the Norse Underworld.
