Legend of Grimrock

On top of Mount Grimrock, an airship carries a group of prisoners escorted by armed knights. The prisoners, sentenced by "the court" for crimes against the King, have been sentenced to be thrown into the pit of Mount Grimrock, at which point their crimes will be absolved. However, no prisoner pardoned in this manner has ever returned.

On being sealed within the mountain, the prisoners make their way downwards through the levels of Grimrock Dungeon, guided by a disembodied voice which comes to them in their sleep promising that a way of escape for both it and the party awaits at the bottom of the dungeon. The party also occasionally finds notes from a previous wanderer of the dungeon named Toorum, who aside from offering clues to certain puzzles and hidden stashes of equipment, talks about his experiences of the dungeon's periodic tremors and the dungeon's design seemingly meant to be "traversed from the top down".

Eventually the party reaches the bottom level, signposted as "Prison". Inside, the source of the voice guides the player to reconstruct a broken machine which will activate a portal out of the dungeon, however upon assembling the parts and repairing it, the voice is revealed to be the machine itself, which manifests as a giant mechanical clockwork cube which attempts to crush the party. Escaping through a portal, the party locates the tomb of the creators of Grimrock Dungeon, who left behind scrolls explaining the dungeon's purpose of containing the machine, which they refer to as "the Undying One", until "the gears of time finally come to rest". The tomb also contains a weapon designed to be used in the event of the Undying One's escape from confinement.

Using the weapon, which temporarily stuns the machine, the party disassemble the parts which they used to repair the Undying One and deal a fatal blow to it using spells of lightning. The Undying One eventually explodes and falls apart, triggering another tremor which shakes the dungeon apart. The last scenes show the party running down a stone hallway of the dungeon, before a beam of pale blue light explodes from Mount Grimrock, ascending to the sky. A gigantic crater is shown to be all that remains of Mount Grimrock, the final fate of the prisoners seemingly unknown.




Legend of Grimrock is a dungeon crawling role playing game with an oldschool
heart but a modern execution. A group of prisoners are sentenced to certain
death by exiling them to the secluded Mount Grimrock for vile crimes they
may or may not have committed. Unbeknownst to their captivators, the
mountain is riddled with ancient tunnels, dungeons and tombs built by
crumbled civilizations long perished now. If they ever wish to see daylight
again and reclaim their freedom the ragtag group of prisoners must form a
team and descend through the mountain, level by level

The game brings back the oldschool challenge with highly tactical real-time
combat and grid-based movement, devious hidden switches and secrets as well
as deadly traps and horrible monsters. Legend of Grimrock puts an emphasis
on puzzles and exploration and the wits and perception of the player are
more important tools than even the sharpest of swords could be. And if you
are a hardened dungeon crawling veteran and you crave an extra challenge,
you can arm yourself with a stack of grid paper and turn on the Oldschool
Mode which disables the luxury of the automap Are you ready to venture
forth and unravel the mysteries of Mount Grimrock
