Orx are coming! Or more specifically, Orx is coming, the roguelike deck-building tower-defence game from Critical Reflex, about which we're seeing even more details at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Future Games Show Powered by Mana. And once you get past the initial, rather arresting images of parapets shooting fire at thousands of club-wielding oafs who refuse to get off the lawn, Orx is clearly boasting a heady lineage♑ of inspirations that'll catch the attention of any veteran indie game lover.
For starters, Slay the Spire and board game classic Carcassonne are both name-dropped on the game's official page - that's an excellent start - but from early glimpses of gameplay we can also pick out inspiration from countless other indies and rogue-likes like Hand of Fate and Slay the Spire, a world and art style that seems to be touched by Darkest Dungeon and Monster Train, not to mention the hand-rubbingly enthusiastic ap♊proach of Orcs Must Die. Oh, and a little Warhammer 40k when it comes to the big-toothed goobers forgetting how to correctly spell their own name.
