The visuals in the 32-Bit Versions actually don't look that bad at all! The characters, especially the Vikings, look like Jim Henson's Muppets, which themselves look very cartoony and appealing!

They bombard the vikings with rocks; the good news is you can block their attacks with Olaf’s shield, but bad news is that these little jerks constantly bob up and down, so there is a good chance they will go below Olaf’s shield and drop a rock ''inside'' a Viking. Some are also out of reach for Baleog to attack them, so sometimes you will just have to deal with them unless you can find an atomic.
