#Orcs must die 3 acid update#

Using spectral versions to highlight the route they will take, you can update in real-time any edits you made to routes by adding blockades to shut off entire lanes or areas. You get to scope out the land, see the direction the orcs will come from. There’s no time limit during this planning period. The music is a bit stock-feeling but enjoyable and an overall level of polish is seen in all areas.įocusing on the placement phase, you get a short time to place any traps or blockades, or even allies. This seems to be the only bug I have encountered though, as the rest of the game is seamless in gameplay – placement phase and shooting are both tight and function perfectly. I also found out that borderless windowed seems non-functional, resorting back to Fullscreen upon selection. Orcs Must Die 3 doesn’t have a lot of bugs, however, there was a big one that struck me within the first hour, and I’m unaware if it was just my computer, or specks, or alignment of the stars, but alt-tabbing in the PC version seemed to annihilate my pc for a few seconds, handing control away from me while it fights to switch to any other monitor I have. However, on the more technical side there are a few blotches that need polish such as the tutorial only being screenshots with arrows, and I would rather have a small map that teaches each step of gameplay over this simple screenshot offered with little depth. On top of that, the animation quality is top tier as well. My first impressions of Orcs Must Die 3 are positive, the art style, for one, is very cartoony and vibrant, yet still holds great detail. I have not played the second one so I cannot compare what it added over the original or this sequel.įor those unaware, the series is a tower defense style game with the added twist of third-person shooting for extra skill and depth.

I played the first game, enjoyed my time, and then left off. Orcs Must Die, developed by Robot Entertainment, is a series I’ve dabbled in throughout its development across games.
