Legend of Grimrock [$1.99] is a terrific throwback to the good old days of dungeon-crawling RPG that got 5 stars from us, and it’s on sale for the first time since 2015. In other words, you should pick this one up while you can. The game will really take you back if you’re my age or introduce you to the masochistic habits of older gamers. The game is all about exploring a dungeon filled with traps and puzzles and taking on all kinds of enemies. Legend of Grimrock lets you side-step enemies and back away from them or even manage to move behind them and take them out more easily. You can also close doors strategically to limit the amount of enemies you have to take on at one time.

The puzzles involve real-time reactions and movements, which wasn’t really the case in the old games of the genre, and can be really, really tough. If you don’t believe me, check out the tears flowing in the game’s forum thread. Anyway, I think I’ve talked too much for what should be a no-brainer for most gamers; if you haven’t bought Legend of Grimrock and it sounds even a bit like your cup of tea, grab it now.
