Heimdall

If you've been itching to try an honest-to-Odin role-playing game but you've been put off by all the mind-numbing stats and map making, you may want to check into the sword-and-sorcery shenanigans of Heimdall. Captain a crew of gruesome-looking Vikings across 27 islands in search of Thor's hammer, Frey's spear, and Odin's sword. Along the way, you'll have to sniff out the secrets of more than 100 rooms and face a hoary horde of monsters. This is an original, fun fantasy game, distinguished by its crisp, canoon-style graphics and its easily managed combat and spell-casting systems. It also has one of the weirdest opening canoons we've ever seen.
