About this game
VR The Hero's Journey The Hero's Journey, also known as the mono myth or hero's adventure, is a term for a pattern that occurs in many mythological stories. The phenomenon is described by Joseph Campbell where the main character goes through different phases. During a hero's journey, you leave the known world and go on an adventure, only to return with new knowledge, insight and power! Hjälteskolan's VR game "The Hero's Journey", is structured according to Campbell's phases, and is also based on exciting figures and environments from Nordic Mythology!

The player then enters a hall of mirrors and can choose one of three mirrors to challenge their fears: Mirror 1: Here the player is taken to a world where the task is to climb Yggdrasil with the squirrel Ratatosk and fight against nonsense and mean tongues and fight for good words and thoughts. Ratatosk the Squirrel: Do you want to challenge the fear? Challenge the height? Follow the smooth upward path of the bark? Ila high up in the treetops? Mirror 2: Here the player travels to a poisoned environment where the eagle Hräsvelg guards and the player injects vitality into the withered trees so that they start to green again. The eagle Hräsvelg: Do you want to create? Change? Recreate the…
