So, I'm a study abroad student from Greece who has been here in Norway for the past 5 months (I love it here btw) and also a life long DVD collector, including both films and video games.

I found this one today in a store in Volda and picked it up for 350 NOK, still factory sealed, but was surprised to find out later that next to no info on it exists online, or even any online sales listings for it on places like eBay.

Since I understand that Captain Sabeltann is a very iconic figure here in Norway, I was wondering if anyone here knows anything about this game or has ever played it.

I'm always curious to learn about such things, as I find them to be interested points of insight into the popular culture of other countries (apologies however if this kind of thing isn't what this subreddit is for).

  1. Kaptein Sabeltann is part of a zoo, they do pirate shows aimed at children. There are movies, cds, games based on the shows.

  2. I remember playing it, but everything I remember from that long ago seems a fever dream to me.

  3. It’s a game based on an character called Kaptain Sabeltann “Captain Sabertooth” 

    He has his own movies and even a amusement park and show.

    The game you have there is an adventure/puzzle game. It’s old, you can usually get it from thrift stores or flea markets.

    It was very highly rated by the looks of some of the dices in the image.

  4. The game is based on a live show that is held in the Kristiand Zoo every summer, and it became wildly popular with the kids. Kaptein sabeltann (Captain Sabretooth)

    The show have spawned music, movies, and games, like the one you have there.

  5. Some parents with kids that listen a lot to his music…. Tend to call him Kaptein Kabelsatan 🙂
