## Description
Orcs Orcs Orcs blends two mechanics that had never been paired before: deck building and tower defense. In a 45‑minute game, 2 to 4 players take on the role of mages perched atop the tower, blocking hordes of orcs from advancing down six lanes radiating toward the base. Each lane has three sectors, and orcs move one sector each round based on a fate card that can even alter round rules. Players build decks of spells, items, and poison cards, using these to defeat orcs before they reach the tower. Three orc categories offer varying strength and abilities, and defeating an orc grants bonuses that can shift strategy. The game ends when a lane runs out of orcs, and final scoring counts orcs defeated, spells learned, and poison cards left in the deck. The mage with the highest score becomes the “Master Mage.” Fast‑paced, competitive, and marrying deck building with tower defense, it offers a fresh, engaging experience.
