About this Mod
Description
Adds a deep, multi-level orcish cave-citadel, filled with brute force and chaos. Starting from a small orc camp on the surface, you will encounter seven diverse locations: dark mines, dangerous parkour sections, lava chasms, hanging orc structures, and a bloody arena where you must either fight waves of enemies or find a way to escape!
Key Features
- A True Challenge: Thanks to integration with DungeonZ, these dungeons become a fair and honest test. Breaking and placing most blocks is forbidden inside - you won’t be able to “dig” your way to the end. Only your combat skills and ingenuity will help you survive!
- Hordes of Savage Orcs: The depths are crawling with brutal orcs and goblins from Wandering Orcs. Aggressive, numerous and bloodthirsty - they will hunt you down without mercy.
- Immersive Orc Lair Atmosphere: Descend into a filthy and chaotic orc citadel filled with crude buildings, hanging chunks of meat, piles of bones, skulls and overgrown underground vegetation.
- Epic Finale: Deep in the heart of the citadel awaits a powerful orc boss with advanced combat AI. Defeating him will not be easy, but the valuable rewards - unique orcish weapons, armor and rare loot - will make worth it.
