ORX News

Hi everyone!

Since our team is now working on fleshing out different factions within the game, we've decided that it would be a great moment to talk a bit about ORX lore and give you an idea of what's actually happening in the game.

Some of you are probably wondering: who are these people? Why do those castles appear out of thin air right in front of the attackers? And what's the deal with Orx themselves? So, today we will answer all of these questions. Well, just a few of those actually. It's quite complicated, you'll see!



ORX gameplay consists of endless battles with, well, Orx. You could assume that this world has always been like this and that killing Orx is the only thing people do here. But it's not that simple.



Today the valley in which ORX takes place is torn by perpetual war. But many centuries ago, life here wasn't so dangerous or dramatic. People just enjoyed their lives, cultivated the land, and did not even think about war (or about building castles and roads at an insane speed).


In general, we know very little about those times — the people of the valley didn't have a written language and were not concerned about preserving their history.



According to the legend, everything changed when the mysterious 'Gray traveler' gave people the magical Book.



It appeared to be a wonderful gift at first - the Book was able to shape the physical world according to the desires of its owner. You just had to think about what you wanted to create - and it appeared before your eyes immediately.



With this power, people of the valley managed to build an impressive civilization - and who wouldn't, with the help of such a unique artifact! But the golden age didn't last for long…



In the next lore update, we will conclude this tragic tale and reveal how this once united and prosperous land ended up like this: torn apart and ravaged by perpetual war. Stick with us for part 2!

And don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and to join our Discord server — there will be a lot of updates soon:

Greetings, dear loyal subj
Hello, peeps!
For the last several months we’ve been working real hard to make ORX even more fun and addictive! And not to keep all the fun to ourselves we’ve prepared a little gift for everyone interested in ORX — Just in time for PAX East Online we’ve prepared for you a Brand New Demo!
What’s new? Oh, we’re glad you asked!



Campaign mode with different missions, shops and rewards. By completing the missions or using the shops the King raises the Corruption level in the Kingdom.
Higher Corruption level makes orx stronger, but also raises the quality of the rewards.



Artefacts which can be picked up at certain points of your journey. They offer great buffs which last for the duration of the whole Campaign. However, each one raises the Corruption level — so think twice before grabbing one from the shop!



Enchanted Vaults which offer great rewards — add a new card to your hand, enchant or upgrade it, remove or duplicate one of your cards. To activate the Vault you need to develop one of tiles adjacent to it and then complete a small quest.



New cards and upgrades for you to fortify the Kingdom with! Like towers and development buildings which need to be placed on existing castles and roads. Or completely new castle pieces and units which — path to victory is in your hands!



New missions in new biomes which have unique weather conditions affecting both you and orx. Speaking of orx — quite a number of new tribes joined the horde in their attempt to destroy the Kingdom!



Revamped Interface — complete with new indicators and visuals. Because the King needs to see everything about his Kingdom just by taking a good glance at the map!



Card Tiers which are advanced by upgrading the cards. They massively improve the bonuses provided by the card, but also raise its cost. Keep an eye on your treasury!



The Curses — super cards which are periodically shuffled into your hand during the orx’s attack. Don’t worry, they’re totally not sneaky about this and will let you know about their appearance and what they think about your Kingdom!

And last, but not least — new music, new loading screen and improved visuals!

We know what you really want — to finally dive deep into the world of ORX and defeat the green-skinned beasts once and for all. We will keep working as hard (and fast) as we possibly can, to finally deliver you the full game. But for now — have fun with the demo and don’t hesitate to send us any feedback or report bugs that we didn’t squash yet in the Steam Discussions or on Discord!
