PlayStation Vita Critic Reviews

Packed full of collectibles, replay value, instantly accessible fun and oozing with charm and character, there really isn't a better candidate for a PS Vita title that everyone must own.

It's a cute, easy-to-play, innovative brawler presented with humor and a well-developed sense of fun. It's even more fun played through with a partner or two, and though the vs. multiplayer isn't to my taste, I'm sure many gamers will like it.

Great value for money, solid multiplayer content and addictive gameplay.

This game is clearly supposed to be played with friends and in those circumstances, it can be hugely enjoyable.

When Viking's Attack is a fun little game, ideally played in short sessions. It looks and plays fine, with cross-platform options (if you buy the PS3 or the Vita version, you get the other one as well) available to extend playability. Not the most impressive title ever, but definitely good for a couple of laughs.

Delightfully British in its humour and style, When Vikings Attack is one of the best surprises recently appeared on PSN, offering a cheerful and frantic multiplayer experience based on simple but clever game mechanics.

When Vikings Attack is a great cross play-title for both the PS3 and the Vita. The structure may be simple and the campaign is a bit repetitive, but the brilliant multiplayer compensates more than enough for this.

Thoroughly addictive. [Jan 2013, p.81]

Regardless of the questionable depth, and maybe slightly high price, you'd have to have a heart of stone to regret time spent with When Vikings Attack. It might be a bit repetitive, but it continues to be fun to biff cars and bombs about, all while listening to the humorous banter between your lot and everyone else.

When Vikings Attack! is a funny videogame. Sometimes chaos will overwhelm the player, but this game is recommended to action lovers.
