Brings back fond memories

This is an outstanding revival of the Dungeon Master type game from the 80s and 90s. I remember playing Dungeon Master on a frieds Amiga 1000 and mapping out every nook and cranny of the dungeon. Grimmrock captures every essence of the old game with the square type of movement. Early in the game every item is important. Finding a rock, knife, some gear to wear, all to keep your team of four prisoners alive. Fighting creatures requires strategy as well as knowing where you're at so you can you back to gain a more favorable position. It is very difficult to go toe to toe with 4 skeleton ghosts with spears. I highly recommend this game for any fan of RPG and for younger gamers as well looking for a fun challenge.

Awesome!

What do you need to know about Grimrock? It's Dungeon Master and if you like DM, than you will love Grimrock. Only thing I am missing is an option for turnbased combat. Realtime clicking is allways a bit too hectic for me, especially when it comes to magic and using items. But that might be just me and as I said: If the RT didn't bother you in DM than Grimrock is a clear must-buy. The gameplay-comfort is just perfect: It feels like an oldschool game but has enough controllmechanics, helpfull tools and onscreen help that it doesn't feel dated at any time (only in a good way). The Graphic might be a little generic after a while, but it's not ugly and gets the job done and for an indiegame it's really nice. The sound on the other hand is just fantastic and enhances the atmosphere perfectly. I like that it's all about sound, not music. Feels very immersive. The amount of gametime is also really good: For 15 bucks you'll get many hours of dungeon crawling and a good balance of combat, exploring and puzzles will trigger that "just 5 more minutes..." Difficulty Level (at least on "normal") is very motivating: Easy to learn but challenging. Always fair, and you're only screwed if you messed up by yourself. And when it gets really hard, most of the times you can somehow make your life easier by using your environment - which just adds to the addicting flow of the game.

Dungeon crawler genre is back!

This game is somehow a masterpiece of art, it has some old school graphics and mechanics,but it will get frustratingly hard if you think it will be as easy as those modern games. First of all,this game is made to be played,not to be promoted or money related stuff. It was a time when developers made games for fun and for the community of players,not for money. But here appears from nowhere Legend of Grimrock which brings a ray of hope in our souls that not everything is lost in the dark days of modern simplified games.The combat is a little repetitive,it requires some strategy because the monsters are very hostile and the loot will be a little under your expectations.Other than this, I can't blame this game for anything else. Totally deserves the 15 bucks!

exactly what i wanted

I have always wanted people to remake the old classics of pc rpgs, namley becuase they had horrible graphics but timeless gameplay! well, they remade wizardry AWSOME and now they have remade Eye of the beholder style gaming! I can't get enough! the graphics in this game are awsome, the gameplay is very challenging (you gotta figure out the puzzles quick, or you'll run out of food and torches) and the enemys are fun as heck to beat down with a wide assortment of weapons. spells are fun too! all in all, a must have!

So many lost hours

Legend of Grimrock took me right back to Dungeon Master on the Atari STe. Its not perfect by any means but it grabbed me and made sure I never opened another game until I finished it. Some of the puzzles were hard, some of the stashes I never managed to open. None of that mattered I just wanted to do the next level and the next. If you remember DM and EOTB you will love this. If you don't remember them this is the sort of game that started it all. Go buy it you will not be disapointed.
