About Helcast

As Modgunn, the keeper of the bridge between life and death, you set out to stop Asgard and Helheim from destroying each other. The planned runs build a deck of weapons, spells and totems while unlocking new items.

Drop weapons into a pile or charge a throw whose mass, speed and collisions influence where it lands. Modgunn attacks the enemy above each merge, so placement determines whether chained hits reach the intended target.
