Grim Tides is a classic turn-based, dungeon crawling RPG with optional roguelike elements. It puts a lot of emphasis on atmosphere and immersion, using hand-drawn artwork, vibrant musical score, and lots of written text to draw you into its vivid and detailed fantasy world. Because of its attention to world-building and abundance of lore, Grim Tides is often compared to a tabletop Dungeons and Dragons (DnD) campaign, or even a choose your own adventure book.
Grim Tides has no multiple currencies, limiting timers, overpriced cosmetics, content locked behind endless microtransactions, or other modern monetization schemes. Just a few unobtrusive and removable ads, and completely optional in-app purchases, for those who wish to support the game and its development.
*** IMPORTANT ***
At the moment, the game is available only in English language. As much as I would like to have the game translated to all languages, as a solo developer, I currently have my hands full with priorities that come before localization. If this is an issue for you, please don't download it only to leave a bad review. 1 star reviews due to the lack of localization don't help, and don't really motivate me to translate the game faster, on the contrary. Thanks in advance for understanding and sorry for the inconvenience.
