I couldn’t survive the Mörk Borg PC game for more than five minutes

Mörk Borg Heresy Supreme released a demo on January 23, featuring a dark Gothic aesthetic and punishing gameplay. The game retains the essence of the original tabletop RPG while transforming it into an arcade-style hack-and-slash adventure. Character creation includes randomly generated heroes, with an option to re-roll for a better build. The tutorial introduces mechanics gradually, but can feel incomplete. The map is accessed via the M key, which is crucial for navigation, and the control layout is considered unintuitive. Quick reflexes are essential due to the game's high difficulty, with players facing immediate character deaths. The game displays a "FAILURE" message upon death, indicating survival time. The full release is expected in Q1 2026, and the visuals and soundtrack pay homage to the RPG's heavy metal roots.
