Vorax is a survival game that is looking fresh
Survival games are evolving over time, beginning from minecraft to a more zombie story based games as Resident Evil games. Vorax is actually developed by a team of enthusiast game makers at IndieGala. For who don't know, Indiegala is a digital destribution platform that sell games and more other stuff. From the videos released by the devs on twitter, the game looks amazing.
While you are on a helicopter, you suddenly have a crash and drop on a mediterranean island. While walking on the island, you discover that there is a pathogen that expanded on the island and caused people to turn into monsters and zombies. Having only a basic survival kit, you thrive to survive in this bloody monstrous environment. With time spent on the island, you start collecting wood sticks, the equivalent of wood blocks in minecraft, and progress through crafting system to deliver more weapons that you use to protect yourself from those animals. This story is enough to keep you entertained and hooked to find the biolab and discover what the hell happened there.
The world in Vorax is well made with cool bits of exploration. The more you explore, the more you stumble upon more materials, plants and weapons that all can be crafted and used on your mission to survive and much more. Visuals are good in 2023, good gameplay and a certified lot of jump scares in the game. Zombies are well modeled and frightening. With the release of alpha testing, the game is getting even more polished. After some exploration, or you are just exhausted you can craft shelters and different protection devices and tools that protect your shelter from those zombies. The variety in Vorax is deadly, the story progresses into exploring the sewers and metro tunnels, where you find there some huge monstrous monsters that gives you goosebumps. The story has many objectives to achieve, and there is always a choice to enter a new story chapter or explore the world to find more materials to craft better weapons and much more. One of the objectives of the story is to locate the Biolab that conducted the experiments on the pathogen, and take some in-vitro samples for developing the antidote of the pathogen "Vorax". A cool feature that the game will support the steam deck, which in turn gives us the indication that this game will run normally on linux systems well.
