Of Orcs and Men

201280/100
Role-playing (RPG)

Fantasy · Stealth

This dark fantasy RPG distinguished itself through its gritty, morally ambiguous narrative and the unique combat system that put players in control of an Orc warrior and a Goblin assassin. The constant switching between the two characters, each with their own distinct abilities, forced players to consider tactical positioning and synergistic attacks to survive. Despite its flaws, the compelling story of unlikely allies and the visceral combat made Of Orcs and Men a memorable experience for those seeking a less conventional RPG.

About Of Orcs and Men

Details
Of Orcs and Men first puts the player into the role of an elite Orc soldier, Arkail, from the legendary legion of Bloodjaws. The legion is a league of warriors deeply involved in the war between the Orcs and the Goblins on one side and their persecutors, Humankind, on the other. As a veteran warrior who has seen the most brutal of battles, the player is appointed by the Orc commander to complete a mission that could change the course of the war, to kill the Emperor himself, the man responsible for the bloodshed. A Goblin, Styx, soon joins the player, an unlikely but indispensable ally.
