About

FrightGrid

Features
Read full description

Trapped in a haunted maze. Monsters move twice for your every step. Think your way out. FrightGrid: Dark Worlds is a turn based puzzle game. Tap one step at a time. Every monster then takes two steps, always chasing you the same predictable way. Bait them into walls, slip past them, and reach the exit. THREE DARK WORLDS Escape the Graveyard and its shambling zombies. Power through the Crashed Ship where alien guards patrol. Survive the Haunted House where ghosts float through walls every third move. 60 HANDCRAFTED LEVELS Every level is checked by a solver, so every level can be beaten. The puzzles start gentle and grow clever, never unfair. Each world ends with a boss that plays by its own rules. FAIR BY DESIGN Unlimited undo. Instant retry. No timers, no pressure. Take back any move and experiment freely until the escape clicks. SPOOKY, NEVER SCARY Cute chunky monsters, moonlit graveyards, glowing teleport pads and flickering candles. Spooky and cozy, made for everyone. FOUR ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACKS A main theme plus one track for each world, all generated live by the game itself. PLAYS YOUR WAY Works fully offline. No account, no sign in. Your progress stays on your device.
