Admittedly, when I first saw the word “gord” I thought, hey that’s the acronym for gastro-oesophageal reflux disorder. An unfortunate coincidence that one, because gord is also the word used for a medieval Slavic settlement.

Look at this gnarly fella'.

A large, terrifying toothy beast from Gord.

The game’s strategy elements will revolve around taking care of your settlement and gradually turning into a fortress, while the adventure side of things will see you heading out on raids. I quite like the idea of this sort of genre hybrid. I tend to get a little bored when games are all strategy all the time, so diving into some combat here and there sounds great.

The developers plan on releasing Gord in 2022, and mention in a press release that they’ll have a little more to share about the game over the coming weeks. So, keep and eye onthe Gord websiteandthe Steam page.
