    Classic RPG in the style of Might & Magic and Eye of the Beholder that was published in an unintuitive and unfinished state and without manual.

    I love this game so far. It is the throwback to classic dungeon crawlers that everyone has been waiting for.

    I am currently playing the game as we speak sure there might be a micro issue or two but they are patched in mere minutes. The game is literally perfect!

    Ask yourself if you remember the golden age of RPGs before they got ruined by endless dialogue, romances and dumbed down gameplay - if yes,Ask yourself if you remember the golden age of RPGs before they got ruined by endless dialogue, romances and dumbed down gameplay - if yes, you might be interested in Grimoire, which rewinds the clock back to the Wizardry 7 era. Sure, its effectively an indie title so lacks a bit of polish and maybe has the odd bug. That's no reason not to enjoy the deep character creation, huge environments, tactical combat (no you can't just spam your strongest attack) and care that has gone into a 20+ year development. I'm inclined to rate this as the best RPG of 2017. Expand

Its real score is hard to measure. It has many good points, some excellent points, and a whole bag of bad to outright horrific ones. How much weighting you apply to all of these is going to determine what you think of it. I am a blobber fan and have been since they first came out. Grimoire tries to bring back those 80s and 90s times, but fails, due to a kiunky broken interface, partly or totally non-functioning aspects, a total lack of balance, and a myriad of other very obvious failures. I'd love to give it a good score, but I can't. I have a lot of Grimoire steam time, but I just stopped playing. I can't takes no more of this broken mess. :( Expand

    Rubbish game. Week on, patches just break other things and overwrite saves. Others have written what is with the game so all I'm adding isRubbish game. Week on, patches just break other things and overwrite saves. Others have written what is with the game so all I'm adding is that it's just as bad now as it was then. Keep your money in your wallet until if and when this game is stable and fixed which given the developer, could take 20 more years. PS. Ignore the positive reviews and almost invariably they are written by trolls from the cult of Grimoire at RPG Codex so shouldn't be taken seriously. Expand

    I heard about the mixed reviews but thought they were just trolling. Well the sad thing is they were trolling, the positive reviews! :( TheI heard about the mixed reviews but thought they were just trolling. Well the sad thing is they were trolling, the positive reviews! :( The game is every bit as bad as the naysayers say and any positive reviews are just by people for this RPGCodex site where they have a cult following for the insane developer for this game. Don't get fooled! Expand
