Viking is a ferocious Scandinavian warrior. Viking's favorite weapons are axes! You can throw them at enemies and split their skulls! It is very simple to do this - just tap on the screen and pull to aim and release to throw the ax. One accurate throw will be enough to put down any opponent. And there will be a lot of them! Among them are archers, armored swordsmen and even magicians. Therefore, to destroy them there are axes available for every taste in the game store, as well as a variety of shields and helmets to defend yourself from arrows and shells of magicians. Also, the player versus player mode is implemented. Each player is on his turret and you need to hit an ax in your opponent before he splits your skull with his ax. And do not worry if you die in the midst of a fight ... after all, Valhalla is waiting for you after death!!!* Have a good game! * Valhalla does not apply to warriors who have defeated less than one opponent.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Arrow Go! at every 6 weeks against The Vikings's every 38 months. Arrow Go! also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). The Vikings's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 63%). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. The Vikings sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Arrow Go! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Arrow Go! holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 164 and 360 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of The Vikings's written reviews are positive against 63% of Arrow Go!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
The Vikings ships an update every 38 months, Arrow Go! every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
