IGN Wireless -- 8 / 10
“The Horrible Vikings is a genuinely clever game that will leave a smile on your face.”

Touch Arcade - - 4 / 5
“If youre a fan of catapult games, there isnt much to not like about The Horrible Vikings. Yes, the core gameplay element has been done to death on the App Store, but few of them can even begin to rival the amount of refinement seen inThe Horrible Vikings.”

TouchGen – 4 / 5
“The Horrible Vikings is a quality title for anyone into flinging stuff from left to right. With a hefty story mode you can get loads of hours out of this one, and funny hours as well as these are both Horrible and Hilarious Vikings.”

Slide to Play – 3 / 4
“If you like the catapult-launching/cannon-shooting genre and are looking for a game with plenty of substance and style, then youll get a kick out of The Horrible Vikings.”

The APPera
“The Horrible Vikings in an enjoyable game that takes the catapulting mechanisms from popular flash mini-games and actually turns it into a game. If you’re looking for a good pick up and play game look no further.”
