Orcs aren’t just mindless marauders, rampaging across the countryside. They have their own markets and currency that keeps Orcish society going. And it’s up to you to keep it running in Orconomics, a new board game from Ares Games. Successfully funded on Kickstarter, the game is hitting regular store shelves now.
From the article:
The “cut-throat” economic boardgame Orconomics will start to hit the stores in US on December 2nd, and will arrive in other countries in the following weeks. Successfully funded on Kickstarter in 2021, the game is now releasing to retail as backers’ fulfillment is completed. Orconomics brings the chaotic economic world of modern Orcs to the gaming table. Backstabbing, ripping off opponents, taking away their industries – all is legit, to get to the top of the Orc jet-set.
In Orconomics, two to five players compete against each other to establish companies in 10 different Industries They can create startups and develop them to become proper corporations or get a presence in an industry sector by winning auctions. Each sector generates income or losses, and grants players abilities that can be used during the game. To win, a player needs to be the first to found 10 companies on the game board – or less if they successfully fulfill some business quests.
