cool game, needs vim keybinds4 found this helpful
Excellent tactical RPG. Highly recommended!1 found this helpful
Came for the cool vibes, stayed for the tail and fur body-mods I could attach to my party members :P Grist is a short experience at the moment but it's really awesome and I will be continuing to play it throughout early access as it gets expanded. The setting is really interesting, the HUD and gameplay is fairly intuitive but quite indepth. The mechanics are straightforward but after a few runs getting a feel for the different classes and abilities I was able to cook up some really fun synergies, and figure out new strategies for encounters that I was stuck on, which felt awesome and satisfying. There are bugs, but the developer is active within the discord and has already fixed all of the ones I experienced and reported. It's definitely worth giving a go1 found this helpful
