    A great game and change for fans of RTS, and a great beginner RTS for those just getting into the genre. The story is original and the characters all have their individual charms. The "Harry Potter rip-off" comments all seem to be from people who forget there are thousands of books, tv shows, etc about kids going off to magic school, and the philosopher's stone wasn't invented… Expand

The story is original and the characters all have their individual charms. The "Harry Potter rip-off" comments all seem to be from people who forget there are thousands of books, tv shows, etc about kids going off to magic school, and the philosopher's stone wasn't invented by J.K. So if you're worried Grim Grimoire is just like Harry Potter, don't be. Grim Grimoire's story is a lot more mature and in-depth. This game used to be everywhere for pretty cheap, but is not starting to fade away. Grab a copy before it disappears.… Expand

    I truly enjoyed this title. The plot, while certainly influenced by Harry Potter, was original in its execution and twists. I loved the dark tones to the characters, and the story was a "page turner" until the very end. As a 2-D RTS, you won't find another game quite like this.

    None of the review blurbs here at metacritic mentioned that the plot was a total ripoff of Harry Potter. The battle system is okay, but frankly, western companies do it way better and without those cutesy little aesthetics. Hearing fairies and elves say "Okay! Okay! Okay!" every time you do anything overwhelms all the fun aspects of the game.

    If this game's story is a rip off of Harry Potter, then I never want to read a Harry Potter book or watch a Harry Potter movie. The story is filled with random characters who all have little motivation to do what they are doing. It's as if the developers made some story, then actually played a mission...

The story is filled with random characters who all have little motivation to do what they are doing. It's as if the developers made some story, then actually played a mission... Then they tried to continue their story without reviewing what they wrote before the mission. There's a whole disjointed feel to it all. It's as if the story and characters are all trying to go somewhere but don't go anywhere at all. Yes, it's a beginner's RTS game, but it's not very user friendly. I think it would have been great on the PC. It sort of reminds of StarCraft Brood War in a sense that there are no rally points and you can only select a small amount of units. So the game is you constantly selecting units and then constantly scrolling back to your base (since there are no hotkeys) to make units. I will say that the art is awesome.… Expand

    I'm not good at RTS games, but I love George Kamitani's work and in the end GrimGrimoire delivered a thrilling strategy experience and a nice and interesting story (I see that a lot of people are saying that this is a ripoff of Harry Potter for the most mundane things tho' Kamitani is well known to took inspiration from western media such as Disney, D&D, etc.).

This game looks beautiful, the character design and background design in the cutscenes is gorgeous, the music is good and the game play at least for a noob like me is good, but, my biggest issue is the variety of stages, every battle feels almost identical and kinda repetitive because the stages look almost similar, I mean there are important differences on their structure but nothing too dramatic to fool your mind, imagine that you play a fighting game and you only play in the same stage with the same background, sure every fight will be different but then again it feels tired, that aside what keeps me going was the story, it has a very interesting twist and is almost like a character study. I don't recommend this game to everyone and if you're like me you will feel overwhelmed by the RTS game play, but if you're a fan of Vanillaware or Kamitani give it a shot, it will not disappoint.… Expand

    This game is certainly fun.
    For an RTS game for PS2, this one has a very good controls, neatly complementing game's 2D POV.

    Artstyle was something new for me at the moment of playthrough in 2020, given I haven't played any PS2 game before this one. I got used to it pretty quickly, and in all other regards cutscenes are made with love and care, so graphics are good in my opinion.
    The only things I find weird are sound and story. The latter is an obvious Harry Potter rip-off with timey-wimey I had a hard time following through, so I had to live in the present and enjoy the show, but I'm afraid I missed some plot points. Regarding the sound, I found many in-game sounds a little bit too similar. For example, sounds for healing, attack alerts, finishing buildings and units sounded all the same for me in the heat of battle, so I had to use mini-map to figure out what actually happened.
    Certainly worth a try!    … Expand

    Mediocre thrash metal that doesn't deserve such high ratings. I don't know how such a large number of players, in principle, can like such a talentless and negligent project.

    Grim Grimoire doesn't have quite the depth or complexity of a western RTS like "Command & Conquer 3, but it does have an elegance that such games lack. [June 2007, p.72]

    GrimGrimoire is fun at first, but not in the same league as developer Vanillaware's "Odin Sphere". [July 2007, p.92]
