About this game

Set in a realm of eternal night, Grim Omens is a story-driven RPG that puts you in the shoes of a fledgling vampire, a creature of blood and darkness struggling to maintain the grip on their fading humanity in a mysterious and lore-rich dark fantasy world.

The game combines classic dungeon crawling elements, familiar turn-based combat mechanics, and various tabletop and board game influences to create an immersive but accessible old-school RPG experience. The way it is structured, it can be similar to solo a DnD campaing or even a Choose Your Own Adventure book.

The 3rd entry in the Grim series, Grim Omens, is a standalone sequel to Grim Quest. It refines the established formula of Grim Quest and Grim Tides, all the while offering an intricate story and detailed lore that ties in with previous games in strange and unexpected ways.

Inspired by old school dungeon crawling RPGs, as well as ttRPG classics such as Vampire (The Masquerade, The Dark Ages, Bloodlines) and Dungeons and Dragons' Ravenloft (Curse of Strahd).

Ratings and reviews

A simple concept that's far deeper than you would originally think. Not so deep that you need tons of focus, but enough to be engaging. Creating your own builds can sometimes be challenging if you don't realise how important skills and spells are, but that's part of the learning process! Highly suggest it and can't wait to buy the others too. Worth removing the ads (not intrusive at all) just to support the developer!

Took a bit of getting used to, as I never played the previous games or anything like them before. Now that I'm several hours in, I can say it's pretty dang fun, challenging at times, relatively easy at others. The perks and itemization can allow for numerous builds, though I've only really played an AoE Mage at this point. Resource management is simple to pick up with a higher ceiling available if you care to aim for it. Looking forward to bearing it and trying out the other games in the series!

Every time this dev makes a game it just gets better. I've been with ya since grim quest, your first. Love the story telling, game play, it's easily the best game I've ever played on a phone. Better than a lot of console games if you ask me. I don't mind paying to remove adds, because the adds are optional anyway. You don't lock me behind an add wall, it's not pay to win, it's simple enough to play on mobile but still intricate enough to be very entertaining. Someone ought to give you an award
