ORX — 'Day of Doom' Halloween Event
Greetings, orx slayers!
With Halloween right around the corner, it's time we've announced some themed content for ORX! Get into the game until November 8th and experience the Day of Doom!
Now, in the world of ORX there is no such event as Halloween per se, but they do have an ancient tradition surrounding Day of Doom! It's roots reach to days immemorial, a time even before orx, a celebration of inevitable end, which — like a plumpy pumpkin that's about to rot, — gives life to new creations. During celebrations you greet people with a phrase "Bloom or Doom!", and answer by showering others with flowers — to ward off sickness and bad luck. Those who never follow this custom are at risk of being struck by all sorts of divine (and other) calamities, turning them into compost for the new, kinder life to bloom.
Bloom or Doom!
So, what awaits you in the game then? Well, you don't have to start giving flowers to orx, that's for sure.
Awaiting you along the treacherous path of ORX campaign is the new Random event! In it you will encounter an unusual dancing orx, who will offer you to pick one of three random masks. One of the mask provides a buff to everything, while another one does the same, but for orx. And the 3rd one is, well, just a mask — but a very festive one! Try your luck and see which one will you get!
Following the Halloween theme you can also expect festive decorations appear in the game: pumpkin carvings in the Main menu and lots (and we mean lots) of pumpkins sprouting on the map!
This might be it for Halloween events, but not for ORX! The 'Day of Doom' event is a part of a bigger patch, called 'Tornado of Souls', which includes all the new stuff, improvements and fixes from the Experimental Branch! Here's a sneak peek at what you can expect:

That's it for Today! See you in the next Steam update!
Don't forget to follow us on Social Media for the newest updates and silly memes! We also invite everyone to join our cozy Discord, where we hold weekly community events and streams. We also have a very special Card Collecting Game on our server, featuring amazing art from the main artist behind ORX — we're already working on adding dueling to this game, so it's a good idea to start collecting cards now!

- Major Dune Reavers balance update — also enabling Tier 3 card upgrades for the faction!
