About the Game

Build your deck, expand the board, and survive the night in this Grimm fairytale inspired roguelike deckbuilder.

Curate Your Deck and Outmaneuver Enemies

A deckbuilder at heart, The Grimwood Hex has a wide variety of cards to choose from. Each with their own synergies allowing for you to choose how you want to play. These are utilised in a unique, hex based, combat system where maneuverability and use of the environment are the difference between life and death.

Build and Explore Grimwood

During the day, place hex tiles to build out the mysterious Grimwood. Explore it's secrets, construct your deck, gain a variety of enchanted items and survive encounters with the twisted creatures that lurk within. Ensure your path back to town is well plotted, as when night falls, the Nightwatcher will emerge from the darkness to hunt you down.

Meet the Forest's Inhabitants

Not all creatures that inhabit Grimwood are immediately hostile. Help these odd folk and they will offer their aid and wisdom in return. However, remember that in Grimwood, nothing comes without a cost.

Race Against Time

Spend your time wisely. A threat looms on the night of the third day and without adequate preparation your run will end in defeat.
