Grimtile
Read full descriptionHide full description
Every floor is a mystery, three tiles by three. A bite-sized dungeon crawler built around one simple idea: tap it. Tap a creature and it's a fight. Reveal an item and it might heal you, or curse you. Reveal the door and you can push deeper, if you dare. FEATURES • Tap-to-combat — no menus, no waiting, just tap and see what happens • A growing bestiary that gets tougher (and stranger) the deeper you go • A mix of helpful and cursed loot — potions, food, and worse • Risk vs. reward on every floor: fight one more tile, or take the door while you can • Fast, bite-sized runs — easy to pick up for five minutes or fifty How deep can you go?
