Bjørn to Dance

Have you ever gone to bed and dreamt of something more?  Well Oolag Bjørn thinks about it every night. His life goal… to be the number one dancer in the Pillage People Dance Troop.

Help build his confidence as he rehearses his moves in his sleep.  Then unleash all those gyrations and pirouettes by memorizing his dances.  Mess up too much and you’ll lose the crowd.

Just remember, the dance world can be cruel and feel like you're STUCK IN A LOOP, but this is what you and Oolag have been training for.

So get out there and show everyone that you are Bjørn to Dance!
