A fate Norse than death



<span class="bold">Jotun</span>, the emotional action/adventure of a dishonored Viking warrior charging towards the venerable halls of Valhalla, is now available DRM-free on GOG.com for Windows, Mac, and Linux, with a 10% launch discount.

Thora has suffered the worst fate imaginable for a proud warrior of her tribe: an inglorious death. But to a true Viking, dying doesn't mean their fighting days are over. The only thing that changes are the battlefields in which they seek glory eternal. And Thora is determined to claim it, even if she'll have to fight giant elemental spirits in order to impress her demanding gods.

Drowning at sea instead of falling in battle left her disgraced but the solemn-faced shield maiden has been granted a second chance. The towering Jotun are the only things standing in her way towards the golden halls of Valhalla but they are formidable foes indeed. Thora will need to channel every last inch of her combat prowess, exercise great cunning when taking advantage of her surroundings, and use expert timing in summoning the amazing powers the gods have blessed her with. The lavishly drawn visuals and the appropriately steely narration will bring Thora's tragic backstory to life in this challenging journey that will see her skills and determination tested against impossible odds.



Impress the gods by bringing the mighty <span class="bold">Jotun</span> to their knees, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 10% launch discount will last until April 13, 1:59 PM UTC.


In the press :
"Jotun is a wondrous trek through Norse mythology" - IGN
"It's a wonderfully wild, vibrant bedtime story told with fire and verve" - Gamespot
"It's a magical ride that I'm sure I'll revisit from time to time in the future." - Destructoid
Bought it during the insomnia sale, the game is great and the artwork is awesome.
- aand there's a version for the penguins out there too.

So far i can only recommend it ;)
Kind of kicking myself for not grabbing this in Insomnia, but it was an unknown quantity at the time. I do believe I will get this though, loving Norse mythology as I do. If not today, then one day.
I snagged this and J.U.L.I.A. during the insomnia sale. Haven't had a chance to play either of them yet, but I'm damn pleased to see them both at GOG.
it's wishlisted. the graphics have caught my attention since the first time I saw them. too many games on the backlog but I will get around to this one eventually for sure.
<in best Impaler voice>

Nice release, but I already have it on GOG.
Yay! Cutesy Vikings. Irresistible. :)
Wee bit late, brought during insomnia sale thingy.

Another victim of "bought it on Steam already". I really have to stop doing that...

ddickinson: Since the version number for the game seems to be the same as during the Insomnia sale, does that mean it does not include the patch that was released on Steam on the 23rd March, which was during the Insomnia sale.

Other than that the game seems lovely. I have only played a little of it so far, but I really enjoy the art style and the setting. It is not the most complex of games, but still quite enjoyable so far.
The fixes pushed on Steam March 23rd were already included in the GOG Insomnia build. The Steam patch was delayed due to us attending GDC (and thus being unable to fix things if something went wrong).

So you're saying GOG got the patch before Steam?

Guessing from this post, plus your name and avatar, that you're one of the game devs. Might want to get GOG to dev-ify your account. It gives you snazzy orange text. :)
achievements???

snowkatt: and that "discount" really is kinda sad
It's just enough to counterbalance the regional pricing. :P

Thank you for the clarification, it is not often that we get things before Steam. And thank you for bringing the game here, I had been hoping it would come here since the game's initial release.
