Return to the Trial Grounds In Grim Trials' Updated Demo!

[p]The Grounds are crawling with monsters and sinners alike, begging for battle with a Reaper.

First, a massive thank you to everyone who played our previous demo and shared feedback!🔥 Based on your feedback and bug reports, we've adjusted mechanics and polished the game to deliver a much-improved experience.

[/p][h3]As a result, we're thrilled to announce that the Grim Reaper Demo December Update is now available to play![/h3][p]
Reenter the Grounds. Craft new builds. Cut it all down.

⚔️💀 Prove yourself as Death's latest, greatest Grim Reaper! 💀⚔️

[/p][h2]What's New[/h2]
  • [p] Gear Visualization - Avelin will now wear her cape and masks when you equip them as gear (boots and gloves will also be wearable in the full game). Even the undead need to keep up with fashion![/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p]
  • [p] New Mechanic: Recrafting - Avelin can now further refine her gear with recrafting using cheaper ingredients. Mastercraft quality now requires perfect execution in the crafting minigame. [/p]
  • [p] New and Balanced Blessings - New blessings have been added to runs, and a weighted probability system has been implemented that increases the odds of repeat blessings appearing, making it easier to upgrade your blessings.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p]
  • [p] You can now manually aim ranged attacks with the right stick instead of a shoulder button, allowing more fluidity in combat [/p]
  • [p] Adjusted room composition and path lengths to breathe some more variety into runs

  • [p] Various balancing changes and quality of life fixes to improve your gameplay experience!
