About Duo Vikings 2

Duo Vikings 2 is a cooperative puzzle-platformer where you guide two Viking brothers through a series of castle dungeons filled with traps, obstacles, and mechanical puzzles. Developed by 7Spot Games, this sequel expands on the original's teamwork mechanics, requiring you to utilize the unique physical traits of both characters to progress. One Viking is a heavy warrior equipped with a sturdy shield that can block projectiles or glide through the air, while the is a nimble hammer-wielder capable of smashing obstacles and triggering distant mechanisms.

Every chamber functions as a physics-based maze where progress is impossible alone. You must coordinate movement to stand on pressure plates, toggle levers, activate lifts, and launch each to high ledges. The game can be played as a solo experience where you manage both sets of controls yourself, or as a local two-player game sharing a single keyboard, making clear communication and timing essential to survive the gauntlet.

Controls

Duo Vikings 2 can be played solo or with two players on the same keyboard:

  • First Viking (Axe & Shield): Use A and D to move, W to jump, and S to trigger his special ability (using the shield to block or float).
  • Second Viking (Hammer): Use Left Arrow and Right Arrow to move, Up Arrow to jump, and Down Arrow to trigger his special ability (swinging the hammer to break obstacles or hit objects).

Tips

  • Use the Shield to Glide: The larger Viking can use his shield like a glider. Jump from a high ledge and hold his ability key to float across wide gaps that the smaller Viking cannot jump.
  • Leverage Weight Differences: Certain heavy pressure plates can only be fully pressed by the larger Viking, or by both Vikings standing together. Pay attention to how the environment reacts to each character.
  • Break Weak Obstacles: Look out for cracked walls and wooden barriers. The smaller Viking's hammer is the only tool that can smash these barriers to reveal hidden paths and gold coins.
  • Stack for Height: You can position one Viking on top of the . Use the lower Viking as a stepping stool to reach high platforms before bringing the one up via elevators or stairs.
