Playing History: Vikings

"Playing History 3-Vikings" is a historical learning adventure for Children. The Vikings. The Nordic Tribes, referred to as Vikings, which made a Name for themselves, especially in the early Middle Ages, were not just Predators. Even as Explorers and Traders, the so-called Vikings were on the Seas. Mechanically, the Game is a simple Point-and-click adventure. We need to talk to People, collect, combine and use items. But everything remains quite simple and rudimentary. Graphically, everything is child-friendly comichaft, though not really very designed. The People look more like simple Dolls and also have hardly any Facial expressions. The Voiceover is something special, because the Speakers use the old Language, or at least what the Developers think is. Unfortunately, there is no need for linguistic studies to understand that the Speakers are present and have no Pale Glimmer of the phonetic Realization of the language that was customary at the time. In order for us to understand something, the Texts can be read as English Subtitling. Through the Game, a Mouse takes us Through that keeps giving us tips and also handing us a special Gimmick: Glasses that, when we wear them, we can click on Things that we Don't think fit into Viking times. This little Mini-game, however, has no Effect on the rather short, linear history. The fact That the third Part of the Learning Game series does not again affect what is actually relevant or historically correct does not really surprise one after the first two Defects. We start in a Cliché, during robbery and Fire Shafts and are allowed to pick up a few floating Coins between the Corpses like Mario. That alone does not fit together at the back and the front. Then follow some sleepingly inconsequential Dialogues, later a few stealth passages, all but in a playful rather rudimentary and fiddly way. Making a Learning Game may be commendable in itself, but once again making it so uninspired and weak, both in terms of game mechanically and historically and pedagogically, is not exactly evidence of thematic and technical Sovereignty. I wouldn't recommend the whole Series to any Child who even wants to learn something or even be entertained.
