GRUNND Critic Reviews

Although at first glance GRUNND presents players with an interesting mystery to solve, the game’s narrative suffers from lack of cohesion. Despite its intriguing plot and eerie atmosphere, the game fails to convey a clear message. GRUNND is trying to tell a Kafka-esque story under the disguise of a philosophical journey, but fails to make itself enjoyable in the process. The eerie atmosphere and top-notch soundtrack are not enough to make the journey interesting. Not to mention the ending feels rushed and leaves a lot of questions unanswered.

The game relies mainly on its dark and oppressive atmosphere, which it does well. Unfortunately, the biggest hurdles are technical oversights and a somewhat empty and anticlimactic ending to your entire journey.
