Bad walking simulator with lackluster combat. The hand-drawn graphics and backgrounds were pretty, but spending most of your time walking through completely empty hallways hoping to find something if anything to interact with was terrible. Your character is also very slow and the map in the pause menu doesn't show your current location let alone what each symbol in it means, so that didn't help at all.

Dwarves would either get stuck on walls or simply walk over them completely ignoring the level's boundaries and verticality as if they were floating. That was so jarring, felt like the game was in an alpha stage with bugs like those. Took me out from being immersed entirely.

I didn't recognize a clear end goal or objective to explore maps or beat the game 1 hour into it, despite that fact that there was a narrator and character monologues. I only found out you were trying to enter Valhalla after drying by reading the game description here on Backloggd (Did they really forget to put that into the game itself?)

A let down overall. Not recommended.
