    GRIME is a very cool game created by 5 students and available for Free on Stadia Pro. Stadia is free and you get 1 month free so basically this game is free. The graphics and the game play are both a 10 and I have been playing every day since launch!!!

    Legendary game. Beautiful graphics, punishing difficulty, and extremely rewarding payoff.

    This game scratches the "metroidvania-souls-like" itch like few others can!
    In many ways it resembles Hollow Knight with a different style/atmosphere and a few of its own take on the same mechanics.

    I can wholeheartedly recommend this game, and congratulate the developers.

    ¡Un genial metroidvania! Atrapa con su oscura ambientación y te mantiene en vilo con una dificultad bien ajustada. Un apartado gráfico muy cuidado, con numerosos detalles y con parte del entorno destruible permitiendo conectar y descubrir nuevas zonas con secretos y retos por enfrentar. Muy recomendado!!

    Stunning graphics in GRIME! Super creepy, ominous vibe, but not scary. Eerily calming. Gameplay is just the right amount of challenge. And I got it free with Stadia Pro! A win across the board.

    Great Game! Really a lot like Hollow Knight. Not too easy, but rewarding. Runs great on Stadia!

    Grime is so much fun, I love the story, slowly uncovering more about why you are different then everyone else, who is this rock population, The gameplay is challenging and fun, I love that each enemy takes a thought-full approach to tackle, and the more enemies you absorb the stronger you get. Also they dont take health away from you and make you go flawless, they give you lots of saveGrime is so much fun, I love the story, slowly uncovering more about why you are different then everyone else, who is this rock population, The gameplay is challenging and fun, I love that each enemy takes a thought-full approach to tackle, and the more enemies you absorb the stronger you get.

    I've just finished the main story in 18 hours and 49 minutes, really nice game, it's a good challenge , I've encountered 2 bugs after beating one boss and some visual glitches on the second last boss, really distracting but nothing game breaking. Will have to go back and get 5 mini bosses that I've left behind. I'm happy that thanks to Stadia Pro I've been able to play this game on day one.

    It's one of the Stadia Pro games for August and I hope they're going to make a lot of money with the new system of share revenue.

    A beautiful game with a fantastic art style that matches the games title perfectly. A different style of side scrolling RPG that requires perfect timing for countering attacks. Although it is a more simple game it really does show the power of Stadia as it simply would not work with a lot of lag or latency, Does not disappoint.

    It's not my cup of tea. And will probably never finish it. But the game looks good, runs great and has a huge learning curve.

    Mix the best of castlevania games with a little of bit from Souls games and you got this incredible game.

    Really nice game which gives me a reminder of Dead Cells, but different.
    Only gripe that i have is that the learning curve is very steep.

Also say that this game it's awesome to play it on phones and tablets with the max resolution.… Expand

    This is a great RPG game, it has beautiful surreal visuals, a weird character with a black star in place of his head, also known as black hole, he is also one of several games in the Stadia Makers program on the Stadia platform.

    During your adventure, you will confront diverse creatures with many forms from twisted to surreal. Explore worlds more mysterious than the creatures living in. But the bosses are the real highlight here as the developer Clover Bite has definitely put a lot of work to design and built a challenging combat system which is leaving you at the edge of your seat.
    What is the most impressive it’s the game has been created by five persons. Congratulations to the team.
    If you’re looking for a really great game in the Metroidvania style, I highly recommend GRIME on Stadia. Tight control, beautiful art style, splendid music and challenging bosses fights.

    Grime is an exceptional Souls-inspired take on the 2D Metroidvania. An intricate, stone-carved world full of mysteries provides a sure-footed foundation for deep, finely-balanced combat and breathless, devious platforming. Best of all, it's a Souls-like that forgoes punishment in favour of encouragement, happy to lend a helping hand whenever you fall.
