What's VORA?
Described by our players as "a new chess" or "the bastard child of Hive and Candy Crush", VORA (formerly Animalicos) is built on pure strategy and long-term resource management.
Randomness can be bent. Every move opens a new possibility. Every mistake costs you.
In VORA, every move counts. And no, that's not just a figure of speech. As proud players ourselves, at Bluebird on Fire we're obsessive and we chase perfection in everything we do, because we do it for players like us, who refuse to settle for the same old thing.
Every rule, every effect, every ability has been tested for years. Every turn played, every event we've attended, are steps on our journey toward one goal: making you enjoy every game like a kid again.
How to play
Cómo jugar a VORA en 5 minutos
This video is not a promo. It's a test. Watch it and decide if you're ready to play with us.
To make a basic move, pick any cube from your farm and push a row or column of the meadow in any direction you choose. As you do, you'll push a cube off the other end... and if you line up three or more matching cubes... they're yours!
The meadow is a wild 5x5 grid of cubes. With basic moves alone you have 20 possible combinations per turn. Use them to build multiple lines, score points... or completely ruin someone else's turn.
But if you want to pull ahead and destroy your opponents, you'll need to master each animal's special moves. Pigs push twice as far. Crows soar over the meadow and devour another animal. Every species has its trick.
Discover it
The great VORA storm has swept across almost the entire continent, terrifying your animals so badly that, completely disoriented, they fled to the meadow in search of shelter. They weren't the only ones. Wolves, moles, pigs, sheep... all of them ended up there, in the middle of pure chaos. A legendary battle for survival is coming. And you're in command.
VORA is a strategy game where your goal is to gather families of animals and elements of the same type to score more points than your rivals by the end of the game.
During a game, you'll find two zones: at the center, the meadow. In front of you, your personal farm. Each turn, you'll try to collect lines of three or more matching cubes in a row, using a single move (basic or special) to get ahead of everyone else.
But VORA is not just a game. It's an expanding universe.
Since its first demo, it has grown with every event, every game, and every look of amazement across a table. More than 5 expansions are already in development, along with several tactical spinoffs and a long-term plan to bring it to digital platforms.
We don't want to stay home. We're touring Spain with the Animalicos Tour, running demos, tournaments, and taking home enormous amounts of love wherever we go. And what you see is just the beginning: this project was born to scale. The crowdfunding already funded... but you can still be part of it.
