You really don't like wizards. Yet one of them decided to bring you back to life through necromancy so you will do their bidding. That's really not your thing! Your loved one is likely still waiting for you, after all. Time to ditch this wizard and go home!
However...
Something's not quite right back home. Your partner is missing, the old king is a dragon now, and that wizard keeps pestering you. Nothing is as it was, and only you can do something about it. Good thing you've got this magical axe!
Orcen Axe is a 2d pixel metroidvania. As the orc Drak, you'll have to face a world that's not at all like you remember it. Use your magical axe in creative ways -- learn new attacks, wield elemental powers and dash high into the skies. This journey has a lot in store for you: Travel through the war-torn countryside, the cliffs at the end of the world, explore ruined cities, caverns and abandoned mines, and restore the kingdom to its former glory.

●Explore over 20 areas and find their secrets
●Hack, slash and dash your way through enemies and bosses
●Learn new skills & find or buy upgrades
●Find and equip skill badges to make your journey easier
●Counter spells with your magical axe
●Use magical powers like fire, ice, light & darkness
●Hidden areas and bosses
●4 to 7 hours of gameplay
