What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Still few issue like - progression need some tweaking - it took me less than 20h for full unlock even i player relaxed and no speed run.
it really feels like a casual survival game starting out, from what i have gathered im on a mission to supply the empire and "for the king" oh and some kind of massive quest involving relics and some kind of LOTR/DnD kind of deal which im excited to delve into later on. for now though, I'm more focused on setting up my base of operations.
- Multiplayer is fun, but my wife demands that you can make female dwarves (even if they still have beards).
Still love this game, even with it's limitations, have been having a blast making an underground mega structure (might be why it crashed lol, graphics card said no).
With better optimization, deeper systems, smarter AI, and a clearer gameplay loop, Orebound could grow into something genuinely special.
This game is the perfect co-op experience.
