What is GRIME II?
This single-player, 2.5D action RPG casts you as a Formless, an art mimic exploring a land of painted nails and giant vases. You follow nonlinear routes, fight bosses, and absorb creatures to make molds for special attacks and exploration. Hand-tendrils let you parry attacks, and both you and your enemies can use the environment to deal damage.
For you if...
- +you enjoy searching for secrets along branching routes
- +you like experimenting with different weapons and ability combinations
Not for you if...
- −you want forgiving platforming and low-pressure boss fights
