ZOR: Pilgrimage of the Slorfs

I love this. Here are a few descriptors to activate your neurons: - Card-driven but low-RNG - Run-based - Tight, boardgame-y resource management and tactics - Small play space, low numbers, every single move and choice is impactful - Exciting, emergent, deep behavior from simple systems - feels like a procedural puzzler - Easy to learn, hard to master - Whimsical, creepy-cute fairytale aesthetic with some evocative stone age tech in the mix It's kind of a roguelike deckbuilder, but the focus here is clearly on the intricate board tactics, not crazy synergies and extreme power progression over a run usually associated with the genre. Looks lovely, plays lovely, and I only encountered a few small cosmetic bugs, so far nothing that mechanically impacted gameplay in any way. So far I failed the Pilgrimage a few times and I very clearly only have myself to blame. It's very appropriately priced, with immense replay value even in this form, and the EA plans sound ambitious. I'm looking fo...

ZOR is a really interesting combination of ideas, it has things in common with roguelike deckbuilders, it has survival elements. But it plays very differently from deckbuilders I am used to. It's not so much about playing out your whole hand and making big combos, but about figuring out the best way to approach the puzzle of each level and trying to maximize the impact of each card, as each turn consists of playing a single card. I love that the map isn't just about the enemies, there's always things to gather and interact with, and a lot of the strategy concerns how to get the maximum amount of resources out of each level while also dealing with the enemies and not running out of food or water. The visuals are great, even the enemies are adorable, and the whole experience has been pretty smooth so far, no major bugs or issues. There are currently only two bosses, but the devs seem to have ambitious plans and a good roadmap. And they seem eager to interact with the players and ma...

The game is a great — and competently made! — amalgamation of several already good ideas into a single package. At the moment though, I don't think it can offer enough variety apart from different cards. For example, there's just two biomes and only one boss in each, which can get pretty repetitive in the future. But if the devs will actually add a lot of new content, it can definitely become something special — one day.

Beautiful games wow!

A good tactics game but hope the devs bring more boses and randomise the roguelike gameplay more.

Excellent, genuinely original roguelite deckbuilder that succeeds where other survival deckbuilders like As Far as the Eye failed. This is a pro buy even in early access and is a game to watch for any fan of the genre. Great mechanics, great polish, just a fantastic game.

Really looking forward to the development of this game, its very promising and has a nice dev team actively engaging in the games development; It is fun and has difficulty settings to make more or less difficult for less or more experienced strategy gaming too

It looks cute, but I'l tell you it ain't easy! That said, a pretty well made game. I think I'd just like faster progression in the unlocks so I can more easily choose my strategy and deck.

It's a cute little game with a decent concept. I'll add more to the review once the new progression system is in - currently replay value is a bit limited.

I love this game. I was hesitant to purchase it but i like the concept of the game.
