Volgarr the Viking's walkthrough is split up into several different areas of the universe. Each major location is a world (an official label as seen when you pause the game): a setting with a unique tileset, traps, and enemies. Each world is split into two sections. These sections are referred to as parts, sections, sub-sections, stages, and levels. Note that there is no official title or labeling scheme for the sub-sections of each world.
After getting really good at the game, you can aquire Warrior Spirits to give to the Valkyrie at the end of each stage. If you acquire three Warrior Spirits on a stage, you will unlock a Valkyrie stage.
Each Valkyrie stage has a hidden rune in it. All three runes are necessary to reach the secret level and the A rank ending.
Beginning the game[edit]
From the title screen, you may walk to the right, or left. If you go right, you will get a soft-introduction to the game - there are no dangers and the timer does not run here. If you walk left, you will be transported to the start of World 1-1.
Walk to the right, duck and attack to destroy the chest. Walk into the Hammer Shield. You will send a fiery spear through the Lizard Man, which will stick into the wall. Double jump onto the spear, then up onto the first step. Jump and hold 
and attack to throw a spear at the wall. Double jump again to reach the top. Move through the wall on the right to slide down and into World 1-1.
