About Hnefatafl
Often also called the Game of the Vikings Hnefatafl tells many stories, like the Moskowites invasion of Sweden or the Viking hordes pillaging Britain. But no matter what the story is one thing always stays the same: The hunt for the king.
Even though the rules aren't complicated the game offers fascinating strategies and rewards tactical play. Try to surround the enemy pieces, plan ahead, lay traps and force your opponent into surrender. Will you capture the king for gold and glory? Can the loyal guards hold back the invading forces and secure the flight of their king?

Excellent way to play other good human players!
This app lets you play all the variants: four-piece(popular) or two-piece(historically accurate) king capture, board size from 7x7 all the way up to 19x19, different initial positions, edge or corner escape, neutral or hostile throne and/or corner squares…, so you can play the variant you think is best and most fun! There are AI opponents that play the 7x7 well, but tend to be weak on larger board sizes. Fortunately however the real value of this app, is that it is popular enough to be able to play real humans from all over the world in real time(10, 20 or 30 minutes) or with correspondence time controls(1day, 2day, 1week etc). Plus there are ongoing tournaments of different variants, often with 64 participants.

Too small on iPhone to play
‘Nouf’ said. Moving on.
