"There Are No Orcs" is a combat strategy game that blends Roguelike elements, tile-building, and auto-battling.
Take command of one of three factions: Humans, Demons, and Dwarves.
Strategically place buildings on tiles to produce a massive, endless army.
Forge an unstoppable front line and smash the enemy's base to smithereens!
Combine, Place, and Profit!
Strategically place buildings to automatically produce gold or combat units. Maximize efficiency by leveraging synergy bonuses based on placement.
Each faction's buildings work in completely different ways. Not all strategies are created equal... but they're all fun to break!
Commanders Who Actually Do Something
Choose from 30 unique commanders, each with their own active skills, passive traits, and four exclusive buildings.
Pick your commander based on your favorite tactical style... or maybe just because you think they look cool. We won't judge.
Extremely High Replay Value
Every run is a new tactical experiment. Feel like flooding the battlefield with an endless skeleton horde? Or perhaps launching a combined air-ground assault with elite dinosaurs is more your speed? Go on, try a strategy they haven't thought of!
Forge Your Legion, Test Your Mettle
Master the counter system to assemble the ultimate army. Battle across four distinct terrains—plains, desert, scorched earth, and tundra—and push your skills to the limit in the ultimate trial: Chaos difficulty.
(It's the kind of challenge where the developers might have just thrown in some... creative numbers to keep you on your toes. You've been warned.)
What are you waiting for? Stop reading and swarm the battlefield with your own forces!
(No orcs were harmed in the making of this game.)
