“The world of GRIME was one that I’ve always wanted to experience in my gaming. You’ll see inspirations from my favorite games like Legacy of Kain and Salt & Sanctuary - almost like an amalgamation of all my favorite gaming inspirations and memories packaged in a playable experience.” Said Yarden Weissbrot, GRIME’s director. “We added our own unique and strange elements to the universe by including weapons with distinct personalities, a broken, desolate-yet-living world, and an unconventional parrying system where you literally use your head to absorb oncoming attacks or redirect projectiles to name a few - it’s truly a visceral experience.”
