In the few short hours that Jotun: Valhalla Edition takes to complete, then, it offers enjoyment in the boss battles, delicate and interesting portrayals of various sections of Norse mythology and pleasant puzzles, but the combat and the movement may irritate people enough to tarnish that. There is a bit of substance lacking in the fact that Jotun is so short, but to fill an afternoon it is certainly worth a go at least.
