The game is yet another initiative by the folks over at Microsoft to push indie games to the forefront and give developers the opportunity to produce great pieces of work. Song of Iron looks mightily interesting and may scratch the itch of many gamers as it gives players the opportunity to play as Vikings.
Song of Iron is a side-scrolling adventure with a fantastic art style that sees players visiting a wide array of environments, weather conditions and battling monsters of different varieties. The Viking protagonist is motivated by his ancestors and his own pride and valor.
In Song of Iron, players are taken on a journey wherein they are allowed to explore their ancient homeland via forests, caves and mountains on their path of vengeance. Revenge drives the protagonist who must keep his eyes open as danger can appear out of nowhere. As the adventure commences, players can gear themselves with shields, axes, and bow and arrows as they uncover various mysteries of a land of the past. The Great Temple of the Gods is the ultimate destination, but a great battle inside is guaranteed.
