Orebound

The idea of the game is amazing and I love the exploring and building, however the splitters don't work. You get them all set up and the next time you log in everything is going into the wrong machines. You spend WAY too long having to reset them up again only for them to break the next time you log in. Can't play it anymore until the bugs are sorted.

The combat and movement in this game is very floaty. Movement is simply too fast for one, and the combat is just swing, swing, swing, swing. With little feedback. And the enemies feel like they are assets ripped from the unreal store. In addition, after installing the game, I had to start again and verify files because stone and wood was not spawning. Spent 10 minutes looking around for a resource that didn't exist. And spawning dwarves when creating a building broke the last bit of immersion I had for the game. At that point I had to refund this garbage.

A digging game that really scratches that itch. It is similar to Satisfactory, harder to make clean lines but luckily you can just hide all the spaghetti underground and out of sight. It is in an early access state but it is entirely playable. The elevator is bugged out at the time of writing this which is unfortunate. You cannot build in reverse for some reason and sometimes steam pipes don't want to fit together without the assistance of a splitter. You can access storage before placing it on the ground. Note: This will delete anything put inside if you choose not to place the storage container down. Probably the biggest complement and gripe is that I want more. There are 10 mineable resources and none of them are especially fantastical. There are biomes with some regionally specific resources but there is almost no reason to venture out to find them. The map isn't especially large and you can get from one end to the other in a couple of minutes. As far as I can tell there are only really 3 levels of the map, surface, -1m to ~-99m, and -100m to -174m. I want some Adamantite, Orichalcum, and other fantasy metals. I want to dig deeper, build more, have a reason to siege enemy strongholds. I want armor and maybe some movement speed boots or fall resistance or double jump or jet pack. All in all I think it's well worth the purchase, 50 hours of beating the current content finding bugs and exploits. Pretty fun game.

Yikes, this doesn't even feel polished enough to be called Early Access.

Максимально прикольная игра. Самое лучшее что в этой есть, это то, что можно строить блиндажи и убивать орков(украинцев)

the game have alot bugs

**Orebound Review: A Promising Mine That Still Needs More Digging** Orebound, is one of those Early Access games where you can clearly see the treasure vein running through the rock, it just has not been fully mined out yet. At its core, the bones are absolutely there. The dwarf theme is charming, the world has personality, and there is enough going on to make you want to grab a pickaxe and see what is buried a little deeper. For $10, I would say it is worth the entry price, especially if you enjoy supporting games early and watching them grow over time. That said, this is very much a true Early Access game, and it feels like one. Performance needs work, gameplay could use more polish, and there are definitely some glitches that need to be hammered out at the forge. The AI also needs improvement, and the game would benefit from a much clearer sense of direction. Right now, it is not always obvious what your larger goal is, which can make the experience feel a bit scattered. Orebound currently has a lot of systems and ideas packed into it, but many of them feel surface level. As the old saying goes, it is a mile wide and an inch deep (or, in dwarf terms, they have dug a huge mine, but most of the tunnels still need richer ore.) Still, I want to be clear: this is a positive review. There is real potential here. The foundation is solid, the theme is fun, and Emberforge has something worth building on. With better optimization, deeper systems, smarter AI, and a clearer gameplay loop, Orebound could grow into something genuinely special. For now, it is a rough gem in the mountain. Not fully polished, but absolutely worth keeping an eye on and worth the sale price of $10 if you are willing to swing your pickaxe through some Early Access rubble.
