The Starcraft II minigame is obviously a play on that. More trivia: The Lost Vikings is side-scrolling puzzle/platform video game developed by Blizzard. It would appear the 'High Score' is broken: in my experience there are no circumstances where it will reflect your previous best.Īs an aside: If you have played Lost Viking and wondered about the significance of the Terra-tron, it formed the basis of one of Blizzard's 2009 April Fools jokes, complete with streaming video (annoyingly, you have follow that link twice if you've not visited their site previously). I now doubt the existence of score multipliers and there's no reason to think the game can't theoretically be played indefinitely.

I've not yet been able to confirm how the game changes. The second and any subsequent playthroughs continue to add to your current score. Once you beat the Terra-tron for the first time you're given the option to replay those same three levels on a harder difficulty setting or to quit. I haven't checked to see if your high score persists to game sessions in other campaign play-throughs. It's always retained my highest score from within that campaign. Is this retained if you save after leaving the arcade game? When returning to Lost Viking, my 'high score' is always 0. Enemies are worth the same number of points regardless of how many times you've looped through the game. Presumably there is a score multiplier when playing the harder modes what are they and how many difficulties are there? For example, the 3rd level has laser barriers you have to dodge on subsequent play-throughs (level6, 9, etc). Enemies get a little harder to kill and a little faster, and certain in-game elements change. The game gives you the option of starting back at the first level and gets progressively harder each time you choose to loop through it. There are no difficulty settings that you can select. They are best suited for taking down strong, hard-hitting air units such as Void Rays, Corruptors, or Tempests (or Colossi) but do not. The Viking is strongest when supported by units that can protect it from ground-based anti-air attacks. Once you've completed Lost Viking, are you able to select higher difficulties without first re-completing the game on the easiest setting? The Viking is an anti-air fighter with the ability to transform into an assault walker, with the transformation taking a number of seconds.
