Nidhogg Fun Facts

Nidhogg is a mythical creature from Norse mythology that gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil, the world tree, constantly trying to bring about its destruction.
Nidhogg, aside from its destructive activities, also serves as a messenger by chewing the corpses of the dishonorable dead, thereby preventing their souls from reaching a peaceful afterlife.

Easy Delivery Co.

Easy Delivery Co. is such a wonderful gem of a game. If you have a retro driving itch, this is a great pick. I was looking for an atmospheric driving game, and this satisfied that itch perfectly. While the graphics are PS1 era, the snow brought me back to the Donkey Kong Country snow/blizzard level - and it was just perfect. Highly recommend checking this one out.

We hope this page was fun!
