Zorbus is a free, fantasy-themed, graphical, turn-based, role-playing roguelike game. Fungi garden mac os. Your goal is to delve deep into a dungeon, find a portal to a mythical place called the Zorbus, where a mere mortal can ascend to demigodhood. You don't have to adventure alone, but can recruit other creatures along the way.
The Mac OS X version of this game does not work on Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7) or later due to the removal of support for PowerPC apps. Key points Standalone expansion pack; includes Dungeon Siege along with new bonus content and gameplay improvements.
Being a roguelike game, Zorbus creates the dungeon randomly, so that every played game is slightly different. The game uses permadeath, meaning that when a character dies, it really is permanent and the player must begin a new game. You can save the game, but the save file is deleted when loaded. Zorbus does not have item identification or a hunger mechanic.
The spell - a kinetic novel mac os. Thematically Zorbus draws influence from the late 70s and early 80s tabletop D&D campaigns, adventures and lore.
The game tries to create a dungeon which feels alive, eventful and rich in content. Something more than just empty rooms and corridors. Diversely shaped levels with themed content (throne rooms, prisons, hidden treasure caches, etc.) with good connectivity between the areas.
Throwback (gipzo) mac os. The dungeon denizens act intelligently, fight each other, flee when threatened and try to gather their friends to overcome a threat. Most creatures can use items and can also pick them up from the dungeon floor. Creatures are not silent either, but comment on things with speech bubbles.
The dungeon has dynamic lighting. There are light sources as dungeon furniture and in the hands of creatures and these both can be lit and unlit. Some creatures have darkvision. Creatures react to light and sound.
The game has over 2500 sound effects to truly make the dungeon feel alive.
The rule system for the game is slightly influenced by the d20 system used in the 3rd edition of Dungeons & Dragons. Zorbus has experience levels but no character classes (race is selected). I want to play blackjack. On each level up, you point buy skills and talents (mostly combat maneuvers and spells).
