What is Grim Quest - Old School RPG?
You play a hired mercenary in a 2D RPG set around Ashborne, a city besieged by horrors shaped by its inhabitants' minds. During dungeon runs, you resolve interactive written events and fight enemies and bosses as you investigate the mysterious Dark. You also manage the city's defenses against raids and other disasters.
