Description

Legend of Grimrock 2 is a dungeon crawling role playing game with a modern execution but an oldschool heart. A group of four prisoners have shipwrecked on the secluded Isle of Nex. The island is filled with ancient crumbled ruins, mysterious shrines and a vast underground network of dungeons and mines. If the prisoners wish to make it out alive, they have to overcome the challenges devised by the ominous mastermind of the island.

Powers of perception and logic are more important than sheer force is, since Legend of Grimrock 2 puts a heavy emphasis on exploration, survival and challenging puzzles. Discover powerful ancient artifacts from hidden secret chambers and buried treasures. Arm your champions, cast spells and craft enchanted potions and bombs to aid you in fighting the dreadful monsters in highly tactical real-time combat.

Design, share and play custom scenarios with the included Dungeon Editor! Create your own adventures and fill them with puzzles, traps, or even totally new items, monsters and environments with custom graphics and audio!

Get ready to venture forth and uncover the secrets of Nex!

Played through with my 6 year old son. He loved the puzzles, finding the hidden buttons and leveling up his party! Great game that is easy going and not too stressful

Look, there's some fun stuff in here, particularly the first half of the game. But based on all the dork-ass 'puzzle' mechanics in the later game, I am not even faintly surprised that there isn't a Grimrock 3. Honestly one of those 'roll the credits at 50% because nothing after this makes any sense and you *will* need a guide' (except that they don't do that, which is... better?)

Ols school D&D, brings back good times. Plenty of puzzles, some hard to work out on informatio given, but trial and error works. A very cheap time sapping fun game.
