Mechanics

GRIME is a platform game, focused not only on overcoming obstacles, but above all on fighting the enemies we encounter while exploring damp caves, gloomy wilderness and other suggestive locations. We have to survive in difficult conditions using weapons that mutate in form and function. Among them are great swords, ragged axes, throwing blades and whips, which can be exchanged during duels. These do not forgive stumbles - in the world of the game it is very easy to be killed, and not only at the hands of big bosses, to whom you have to use individual tactics. During the fight you have to skillfully parry monster attacks, dodge, use your character's abilities and bring out specific combos at the right time or adjust your weapon type to your enemy The developers refer in this aspect to the games from the Souls series.

GRIME uses the original mechanics to absorb the remains of fallen enemies that strengthen our vessel. It is related to the character development system. Absorption of monsters allows you to unlock new skills, the selection of which depends on your preferred gameplay style.

Technical aspects

GRIME is a two-dimensional side-scroller, but designed using 3D technology. The game provides a very good visual experience thanks to the imaginative locations, which are reminiscent of a fallen civilization. The developers also put their attention to detailed models of creepy and sometimes frightening enemies.
