The creators of The Lost Vikings went on to create a game... that maaaybe you've heard of.

The Lost Vikings was another gem for the Amiga. All the best stuff was coming there first, I swear! First giving The Lost Vikings a shot on a random demo-disc, I went in expecting a regular platformer. Instead, The Lost Vikings offered some great puzzles, within a quirky world with goofy characters, and dialogue that refused to take itself seriously.
I got the game again during university for the Game Boy Advance, giving the actual game a real shot without any form of cheats. Some of the levels get quite intense. Not only do you rely upon each vikings key strength, but the vikings must also adapt to each world they encounter, utilizing modern technology and other strange devices. This game was full of charm, and it was incredibly challenging.
Fingers crossed that Activision Blizzard will come to their senses, and produce “World of the Lost Vikings”.
