What players think
The recurring themes across 43 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
There's no experience or level-up system, so all of your character stats and abilities come from equippable items that are either handed to you through story progression or by running around and clicking/fighting everything in sight, in the hope that doing so will reward you with something valuable.
The graphics and art style of Grimshade really do remind me JRPGs of the 90s, so everyone who enjoyed these games will like Grimshade‘s look.
However, as I was playing this game in 4k, although it looked really pretty, I noticed that this game is poorly optimized for this resolution and the text is way too small.
