Orcs-a-lordy! It's Age Of Heroes III...

Qplaze's fantasy mobile saga gets its third outing

Orcs-a-lordy! It's Age Of Heroes III...

While we await the UK debut of EA Mobile's Orcs & Elves, another game's come along starring, yes, orcs and elves. Plus trolls and goblins to boot.

It's called Age of Heroes III – Orc's Retribution, and as you might've guessed from the name, is the third in the series from publisher Qplaze, which focuses on an epic war between the two fantasy races.

But listen up: in this game, you get to play the orcs, not the elves. Which is great news for those of us who think elves are a bit rubbish.

What it means for the game is dozens of battles, big and small, for you to fight in while advancing your orc hero's skills, as well as looting precious items. Plus a full complement of maps, magic and side-quests to distract you along the way.

Mobile isn't exactly bulging with this kind of epic RPG game, so Age of Heroes III could find a healthy audience if it's any good. Grimy gobliny fingers crossed!
