Legend of Grimrock

I'm very disappointed by this game. I expected that its difficulty will in building strategies, hitting timings etc, but not in repetitive sequences of clicking the same icons over and over, struggling to not mess with mouse buttons ((

fun

I had fun with it (mostly) until this disappointment, look for my next schizo rant review in the 2nd game soon also ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ the game over screen is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying like ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ LET ME QUICK LOAD YOU SCUM, nope gotta wait an hour until it takes me back to the menu EAT MY ASS

I bought the game in 2012 and loved it... but for some reason didn't comment. Now it's 2026 and I felt like giving it a go, for nostalgia sake I suppose... and it's still great! Plus I love cello, so the music is... mwah! <3

Exactly as long as it should be. Long enough to get settled into the mechanics, but not long enough for the simple and clean gameplay to get old or frustrating. Progression curve ramps perfectly from start to finish.

초보자가 입문하기 좋은 던전 RPG

Legend of Grimrock é uma revisita em grande estilo aos clássicos dungeon crawlers dos anos 90, como Eye of the Beholder e outros do gênero. A história é simples e direta, mas a proposta aqui nunca foi criar uma narrativa profunda — o foco está totalmente na exploração, nos puzzles e no combate estratégico em tempo real. A nostalgia fala alto, mas o jogo também se sustenta muito bem por mérito próprio. As mecânicas permanecem praticamente intactas em relação aos clássicos e não foram “modernizadas”, o que pode afastar alguns jogadores mais acostumados com RPGs atuais. Ainda assim, para quem procura exatamente essa experiência mais raiz, isso acaba sendo uma qualidade. Os gráficos surpreendem positivamente para um jogo indie e ajudam bastante na imersão dentro das masmorras. A atmosfera funciona muito bem e o jogo consegue transmitir constantemente aquela sensação clássica de perigo e descoberta. É definitivamente um jogo de nicho, mas extremamente competente dentro daquilo que se propõe. Quem gosta desse estilo de RPG provavelmente vai se divertir bastante. Para mim, é facilmente um 7.9/10.
