Orcs Must Die! springs a trap on Steam
The thing about Orcs is, as misunderstood as they possibly may be, they still gotta go. They must die. It's kinda like destiny.
And, as was foretold (give or take a day) by the great seers at Robot Entertainment, Orcs Must Die! is now available for download on Steam. PC gamers, you no longer have an excuse for not doing your duty and killing a whole lot of Orcs -- well, unless you can't afford the $14.99 cost of admission.
