Description

Lead the people of the Tribe of the Dawn as they venture deep into forbidden lands. Complete quests that shape their personalities, impact their wellbeing, and decide the fate of their community. Ensure the survival of your populace in a grim fantasy world inspired by Slavic folklore.



Erect palisades, develop structures, and grow your gord from a humble settlement to a formidable fortress. However, expansion won’t be easy! Your population is constantly at risk from enemy tribes, gruesome monsters, and mysterious powers that lurk in the surrounding woods.



The versatile quests in Gord will have you venturing beyond the walls of your settlement, either to prevent calamity from happening or to address a personal matter of one of your subjects. The Scenario’s main objectives will guide your journey, while side quests and random encounters will dispatch you into the wilderness to hunt down legendary creatures, uncover secrets of the Ancients, or vanquish a nasty scourge. Expect the unexpected.



Set the stage by choosing from a wide range of Scenario options, and try to emerge victorious. Take it easy or set an impossible challenge; almost anything can be adjusted! Choose from a variety of primary objectives, select the level size, the intensity of raids, the environment you’ll play in, the types of enemies you’ll face, starting resources, and even the severity of weather. Of course, don’t forget the Horrors.



A healthy populace is the key to survival in Gord. Every aspect of your settlers’ lives - from illness, to hunger, to the death of their kin - can impact each subject’s Sanity levels. Keep a close eye on them, as once a subjects sanity reaches a critical point, they will suffer a breakdown or even flee your rule.



Please the Gods with your prayers and they may give you access to their spellcasting abilities. Incantations vary in nature - some are offensive while others are defensive - but they all help to tip the battlefield in your favor. Conceal areas from your enemies, gain control over threatening beasts, or turn an unholy rage against all who dare to oppose you.



The Chronicle explains the history of the Gord universe that blends real-world Slavic mythology with dark fantasy. Pages torn from The Chronicle will be scattered throughout the game’s landscapes, giving dedicated players an additional challenge of discovery. Collecting as many pages as possible will provide insight into the origins of the Gods, ancient factions, and the mystical Whisperers.

GOG version is abandoned

Unfortunately the developers and Team17 have decided to abandon the GOG version of the game, which means that it will not receive the latest patches. Avoid buying it.

Doesn't look abandoned anymore (nov '24)

I looked into the comment from February 11, '24 saying that the GoG version is abandoned. It perhaps was at that time, yes, but the forum thread continued for another month and ended in this comment from March 24, '24: "To be fair, it must be said that at the same time they released the DLC they also uploaded the latest version of the game, so it seems that in the end they decided not to abandon the GOG version." https://www.gog.com/forum/gord/patch_14 More may have happened since, though GoG seems to be the same as Steam since March, based on dates and the addition of "The Alliance" DLC. Stay informed out there: - https://www.facebook.com/GordTheGame/posts/weve-just-released-a-gog-hotfix-patch-which-fixes-an-issue-with-the-in-game-the-/739338934968190/ - https://www.gogdb.org/product/1986523815#builds - https://www.gogdb.org/product/1991093950#changelog - https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1351210/view/4188980892570572379 - https://www.gog.com/forum/general/the_what_did_just_update_thread_part_2_the_search_for_more_updates - https://www.gog.com/forum/general/games_that_treat_gog_customers_as_second_class_citizens_v2?search=gord - https://www.gog.com/forum/general/where_to_check_game_version I'm randomly giving it 4 stars as I haven't played it, but wanted this information out in the name of fairness 0.o

Sadly too much micromanagement

Dropping this review just to warn you. The release version is a nightmare of failing gameplay. Read some of the more in-depth reviews online to understand what is wrong. Yes, the setting, graphics, story are all very nice, no doubt about it. The game has amazing potential. But your settlers AI is just unbelievable stupid and you have to micro-manage every aspect of the game by endless frantic clicking or pausing all the time. I dropped the game in the second mission, because after the fourth newborn s**t just hit the fan and the game grew increasingly more annoying. Maybe they can fix some gameplay in the future, but for now I can not recommend it even remotely.

Great Atmosphere but tedious Gameplay

Gord does have some great Lore and an overall captivating atmosphere. That and the promis of a gameplay mix between strategy, survival and roleplaywas the reason I bought it. Sadly the gameplay combination does not work at all. The Elements do not work together and the only thing they have incommon is that they quickly become tidoius to manage. While all you villagers have destict personality traits these do barely matter. There are Irems, but their benefit is not worth the hassle of tranfering them to the people that would benefit from them. The Sanity System only leads to everyone taking rests once in a while slowing down the gameplay. Your ressource gatherers wander of into the wild so you constantly have to monitor them. Most buildings feel almost entirely useless as they only allow your villagers to gain certain professions with which they can also alread start. The placement of Pallisades for your gord and outposts ist frustatingly resticted. The map is cluttered and confusing... Although I liked the atmosphere and lore there was no part of gamplay that worked well for me. So, sadly, I cannot recommend it.

Early Game Review

Im on a 3rd scenario of the campaign right now, so obviously I don't know the whole story. As for right now it's seems to me like it's kind of a Frostpunk crossed with Thea, but as a RTS, with a exploring-party-fighting element. The mechanics are quite simple, normal difficulty seems easy (but I'm at the beginning, so maybe it will change), visuals are not bad and audio is great - especially sounds and music, but voices and acting are keeping up. So, you may say "nothing special", but I find it extremely engaging, beutifully done, interestingly written and thouhgt through. The slavic climate of the game is trully immersive and I will probobly spend a lot of time in it - and I'll hunt for DLC on-sale:) TBC.
