About This Game

(the) Gnorp Apologue is a game where you help small beings called gnorps get rich. It is a unique incremental game with interesting upgrades, and visuals to match the numbers.



Hit the rock
What is the rock? Irrelevant question — when struck, it outputs shards, and shards are amazing. They allow you to purchase and upgrade gnorps, and build new structures. The gnorps must have them. Hitting the rock is only half the battle, however, as the gnorps must retrieve the shards before they can use them.



Acquire and upgrade gnorps
Gnorps represent the heart of the game. They are responsible for both shard generation and collection. Gnorps adapt varying methodologies to reach their goal. Some slam the rock with their heads, others shoot it with arrows and guns. You have gnorps that grow flowers, and gnorps that use psychic powers. They even build rockets and drones. All for a single purpose — the accumulation of shards.



A strategic incremental
(the) Gnorp Apologue is about making numbers goes up, but how you do that is up to you. At your disposal:
- All the gnorps, with their varying strengths and weaknesses
- Upgrades that enhance and modify both gnorps structures and gnorps
- The Talent Stone, offering unlocks that allow for extreme, synergetic effects
- Status effects to enhance and modify shard generation
- A special resource, Zybellium, that can greatly enhance your gnorps



If you enjoy theorizing about and executing builds in games, this game is for you.



Will you help the gnorps?
