ORCS is an action-platformer about a dude taking out a bunch of orcs. Beat it in a little under 2 hours using a game controller. Difficulty is hard. The graphics are pixelly, the music catchy, and the sword swinging pretty fluid. There are some typos in the cutscenes, but it's forgivable. You will die a lot. I was in RAGE over the lava level. ORC BAD!!! Anyway, it's well worth the price for what you get.
