Why on Deck

GRIME is one of the weirdest, most visually striking metroidvanias out there. The whole world is made of surreal anatomical horror, your weapons are alive, and you absorb enemies through a black hole to grow stronger. It’s genuinely unsettling in the best way, and the 2.5D art style looks incredible on the Deck’s screen. The parry-based combat is tight and demands your full attention, which suits focused handheld sessions. If you’ve played all the obvious metroidvanias and want something that feels truly different, this is it.
