About this quiz

What this Viking mythology quiz covers

Norse myth isn’t just Thor’s hammer and Odin’s ravens—it's a whole network of realms, families, prophecies, and feuds. This quiz focuses on gods, giants, key stories, and the build-up to Ragnarök, with a Mixed difficulty curve.

Each question gives you 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can think through kennings, names, and relationships without rushing.

Skills you’ll practice

You’ll sharpen your recall of who’s who in the Eddas, what major symbols mean, and how events connect across the mythic timeline. Expect a blend of straightforward identification and questions that reward careful reading.

Common pitfalls to avoid

Many players mix up similar names (especially giants and lesser-known gods) or confuse locations like Asgard, Midgard, and Jötunheimr. Another frequent slip is remembering a character’s role but attaching it to the wrong story or prophecy.

Difficulty and question settings

Because the quiz is Mixed, easier questions help you build momentum while harder ones probe deeper lore and finer details. Before you start, choose your question count and difficulty to match your mood—go shorter for a quick run, or longer to really test your saga knowledge.
