From BoardGameGeek

Unlikely Heroes: Vikings is a puzzling narrative adventure game in which the unlikely heroes must venture into the dreaded lands of pillaging and plunder with three unique quests to ensure your legacy: The Ruins, The Mead, and The Living Dead. Unlikely heroes must explore the map, encounter challenges, and ultimately save the day. Start the game by flipping the first map tile and exploring each corner of the map. As more and more tiles are uncovered, your team will encounter puzzles, enemies, treasures, tools, weapons, and allies. Decipher the narrative and explore the map accordingly for victory.
