Hnefatafl
hnefatafl
Hnefatafl, often known as Viking Chess, is a fascinating ancient Norse strategy game. Unlike modern Chess, Hnefatafl features asymmetrical sides: the White side defends the King and attempts to escape, while the Black side attempts to capture the King. Sharpen your tactical skills in this classic turn-based board game and relive a piece of history! ⚔️
Black defends, and White attacks, remember this, choosing the pieces and starting the game. Chess is the oldest game in the world, but they are still popular in both the real and virtual worlds. Defend the king if your army is white, but playing on the black side, you should not miss the main figure at the destination.
