On Steam, a new strategy and building game has been announced, in which you become the self-proclaimed life coach for your orc family. You can learn more about it here.
In Don’t Kill Them All, you take on the role of a half-orc elf, raised by elves, but now dedicated to guiding the orcs toward a better path. After all, family is everything.
On Steam, the strategy game with building elements has now been announced. It is being developed by Fika Productions, who previously released a co-op game in 2022, which received 80% very positive reviews on Steam.
There is no release window for Don’t Kill Them All yet. However, an initial trailer now showcases the charm and gameplay of the game:
What can you expect? In Don’t Kill Them All, you will face the challenging task of instilling new values in your orc family and helping them discover new passions, emotions, and healthy relationships.
As the trailer shows, this is not an easy task. Your job is to lead the orcs deliberately and skillfully.
While you collect resources for your new home, you send the orcs over various small maps in tactical gameplay, where there are resources to gather such as wood, stones, mushrooms, and small bushes. But other creatures await on the map, some of which are enemies while others are innocents.
Show the orcs what restraint means
Restraint in battle is not easy for the orcs. During your moves, you need to plan carefully, otherwise the resources you intended to gather and the creatures you wish to protect may suffer damage from your attack. Additionally, you have to keep an eye on your energy. Once it is depleted, the orcs will no longer listen to you.
The trailer also emphasizes that the orcs can’t just smash things; over time, they can learn different roles. For example, one orc sends its tamed animals into battle. Another orc becomes a wizard and confuses its enemies with exciting card tricks.
You use the collected resources to lovingly expand your base. It’s not just about meeting the general needs of the orcs.
With the buildings and places you construct, you can help them discover a new passion, whether it be through yoga, baking, animal husbandry, or a wizard show. How beautiful an idyllic life can be is also shown in the next game set in “The Lord of the Rings” universe: I have played nearly all “The Lord of the Rings” games, and the latest one could become my highlight
