Kor

About

Kor is a retro-inspired RPG with turn-based strategy elements set on an alien planet. You play as a lone explorer navigating strange environments interacting with quirky locals and piecing together a mysterious narrative through dialogue and exploration. Combat alternates between tactical grid-based turns and real-time action where you string together attacks using a joystick-like control scheme. Each battle requires balancing positioning and timing to overcome varied enemy types and level layouts. The game's hybrid combat stands out for blending methodical planning with quick reflexes. Since its 2021 release Kor has built a small but engaged community drawn to its nostalgic pixel art and unpredictable story twists. While the learning curve can be steep players appreciate the depth in strategy and the offbeat humor woven into character interactions. Those looking for a retro RPG with a twist on traditional battle systems might find it rewarding despite its niche appeal.
