Nidhogg 2
The rules are simple. Reach the other side and kill anyone that stands in your way. Deftly parry and rend their throats, riddle their bowels with arrows, or squish their brains between your toes. The wurm cares not for chivalry.

Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. In this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of a game, my grandma killed me, in the end I would call it a good experience, but my grandma would disagree. I killed that old ♥♥♥♥♥ like 30 times, she never stood a chance, she flatlined after that, like dead, in real life, not in a video game. If I had to give this video game a rating, I would give my grandma 5 stars, out of 10 to be clear. My grandpa, well "was." beat the ever living ♥♥♥♥ out of me after I killed his wife in this game, perchance. For a video game called the title of this video game, one would surely expect hogs to be present, but no, the twerp developers decided no fun for anyone. Conclusion.
