GRUNND

In this beautifully crafted, fully voice-acted mystery story, you find yourself fighting to stay awake on your evening train ride home from work until sleep finally takes you Uh oh! Youve missed your stop.

In a panic, you jump off at the next station and attempt to get your bearings. Unfortunately, getting a grasp on exactly where youve ended up turns out to be more difficult than youd thought.

The people you encounter in the nearby town are strange, and while they fancy themselves helpful in their own ways, they arent always helpful in the ways that would see you quickly on your journey back home. The air here is thick and strange, and just beyond the reach of your senses something ethereal and omnipotent observes your every move from the sky



GRUNND is a unique take on interactive mystery adventures with platformer-inspired locales, fast travel, and branching multiple-choice events that the player will begin to unfold from the very beginning of their journey.

GRUNND is more interested in making you think through the complex story beats it presents than through overly convoluted puzzles. Youll encounter challenges to solve and overcome, of course, but these will be tied into the interactions you have with the various characters you meet along the way. The rich story of GRUNND concerns itself with you as a protagonist, but equally it shines a spotlight on the world around you and the stories of its sometimes-bizarre inhabitants.

The gameworld of GRUNND is inspired by the works of Franz Kafka and David Lynch, with its unique style sprinkling in droplets of Southern Gothic and Black Metal as well.

As one reviewer over at Voxel Smash not so long ago said..

"...
...It shows an understanding of how to construct a cryptic narrative while also giving vague hints to the actual background of the main character, without judgements or moral constructs. It feels free of other games need to respect the classic adventure design, and it tries to aim for a different experience. In that, it earns my respect.
If youve played your fair share of contemporary adventure games, GRUNND is a breath of fresh air in a genre often crowded by stories that dont seem to have much to say or are content to just imitate past attempts. The audio design in the game is also well done. With some sparse atmospheric gloomy music and sound effects, this is definitely one you might want to play with your headphones on at night for the full experience..."
