Orcs & Elves' is a turn-based role-playing game, played from a first person perspective. Each individual action by the player counts as a "turn", whether that be movement, using an item or weapon or casting a spell in which other foes will also move and attack in turns following each. Each forward move by the player is done on an invisible grid that makes up each level in order to retain the turn-based element while appearing more like a first person adventure due to its fast paced nature.

One of the best dungeon crawlers from John Carmack himself.

Doom + The Elder Scrolls + Rpg de turno... é isso

Fun little turn based dungeon crawler. Reminded me of Eye of the Beholder on the Amiga, but even simpler, which isn't a bad thing. Great for just sitting down and killing monsters for a while with some very light puzzle elements. Relaxing and fun.

this game is probably how i was desensitised to blood and gore since i played it quite a bit as a 6 year old child
it's a game
you kill monsters
you solve puzzles in dungeons
you stay in the dragon's lair for several years bc you don't really know what to do bc you're 6 years old and you don't touch it until you're bored one day and play it out of curiosity
i think the wand talks
that's interesting
i guess
i think in the end the ghost of the king is like 'ur actually my great grandson or something wowsers'
i'm not spoiler tagging that who cares

meu jogo feio preferido. é bem mediano, muito fácil, te dá mais recursos do que vc precisa, mas tem um charme de jogo feio dessa época que funciona por algum motivo

bring back turn based first person gridded dungeon crawler rpgs

So this is an interesting one.
It's honestly a really basic turnbased rpg but there is just something to it that just kinda works. The atmosphere is kinda suppressing and it sometimes really does get a bit gruesome graphically.
This game does not break any boundaries or something like that. It just kinda exists and is a neat experience I return yearly for no real reason. It is an short experience. If you know what you do you can play it through like 4-6 hours.But there is really no reason for me to like it that much but I still do.
But if you wanna play something obscure from the DS and early Mobilegame era, try it.
