Gorlaks are a playable race in [[adventurer mode]] as of version 0.42.04. At that time, due to missing the {{token|CANOPENDOORS}} [[Creature token|token]] in their raws and almost always spawning in dwarven [[hillock]]s or [[fortress]]es blocked by [[door]]s, their careers were shorter than most. This was eventually fixed in version 0.43.05, which gave them the ability to open doors. They can't be spawned in the [[object testing arena]].

They are easily dispatched by even a novice military dwarf and/or most civilians. Gorlaks can learn, so they may visit a fortress. They can't be spawned in the object testing arena.

Some dwarves like gorlaks for their impressive tusks, their stimulating conversation and their helpful guidance.
