Ragnarok is a 1993 fantasy role-playing game that combines exploration, combat, character development, and Norse mythology into a substantial adventure. Players guide their characters through a world populated by warriors, monsters, gods, and other inhabitants, gradually becoming stronger while uncovering the mysteries surrounding the story. The game offers the sort of freedom associated with traditional computer RPGs, encouraging players to explore rather than simply follow a straight path from one battle to the next. Equipment, statistics, and tactical decisions all play important roles, so reckless adventurers are likely to discover that courage is not the same thing as preparation. Ragnarok has the atmosphere of an old-fashioned fantasy campaign, complete with dangerous encounters and mysterious places. If the gods are watching, they are probably wondering why you keep walking into obviously dangerous caves.
An excellent and hard to win game. Played it 30 years ago. Trick was to make a character, run out, collect stuff, get killed, make new character, go collect the stuff you dropped but you gotta outrun death, keep doing this until you get ring of wishes, several of them. Used right you end up with 20 fingers with rings on each, and the body of a hydra (whatever it was) which gave you aoe exploding ability around you. Keep grinding until all your rings are making you godlike powerful, cross the rainbow bridge, save the Aesir gods that you can, dont let Jorgmunand kill you. Not so easy when he is hitting for 70k to 180k.

Awesomeeeeee! One of the best games ever! Basic graphics and sound but truly one of the most complex, creative and challenging games you will ever play ; There is a whole book of game mechanicals you have to learn by experience and (don't ever forget this) taking note of every advice of the Odin crows and every diary note of the fallen heroes. This game is a jewel! Thanks for upload this rare treasure!
