### 5/5 — It’s cute!

*2026-02-25*

Went down a bit of a rabbit hole after looking for similar games to A Dark Room. This one’s a bit more whimsical and simple, and I haven’t finished it yet, but I like the vibe so far.

### 4/5 — そこそこ面白い

*2025-06-07*

設定で日本語に変えれました。
選択をしていって間違えると即死したりします。
どれを選んだらどうなるか憶えていく感じで、さくさく進められました。
ボリュームは値段なりって感じです。

### 5/5 — Awesome and fun

*2025-05-16*

Really cool game. I love that you get to imagine everything happening in this game just through words.

### 5/5 — Very.

*2023-04-18, version 1.1*

Good.
Game.

### 5/5 — Open.

*2023-03-02*

Tap.
Thrilling.

### 5/5 — Multipurpose Game

*2022-02-15*

So… I love this game. Absolutely love it. It's completely and totally minimalistic, but that means you can see it almost any way you want, and it's impressive, in my opinion, that despite its simplicity the words chosen are perfect, and are powerful enough to spark the right emotions in the player. 
Yeah, I love this as a simple RPG, however I love it even more because I've also found a weird alternative use for it.
I'm learning German. I like to practice whenever and however I can, just so I can slowly become fluent in the language. This is going to sound stupid, but uh, I realised I can set the language in the game to German, and due to the minimalistic style it's not overly challenging for me. It's a fun way to improve my vocabulary. I dunno. I'm weird.
Anyway, it's a wonderful game, I totally recommend it, aaaand if you're learning a language maybe it can help you…?

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2021-12-31, version 1.1*

Don’t waste your time or money

### 5/5 — Inspired

*2021-10-10, version 1.1*

One of the funniest, most enjoyable story game apps I’ve downloaded in ages! Funny, clever and creative. A beautiful example of how well a story can be told, even just one word at a time. If you’ve ever enjoyed a text-based adventure game before, I highly recommend giving Ord a try! You won’t be disappointed.

### 5/5 — Chungus moment

*2021-09-10, version 1.1*

Ur mom gottem jk it’s a good game lol

### 5/5 — For those who give this less than 5 stars:

*2021-07-15*

Learn to understand the time, effort world building in these amazing universes must take. They use little words and manage to tel compelling, hilarious, and investing stories.

Words could never do this game justice. The creators have managed to, for once, likely spend more time on the story and choices than the actual coding.

I feel Heist and the main Quest are the best, and especially Heist, using different times and choices to tell a compelling story where you rob a bank and attempt to get away with it.

If you’re considering buying this game, do it. One of the best story games I’ve played, and only for the small price of two bucks.

Trust me, I’m not a review bot/marketing person. Love this game and I hope you will too.
