Things Are Grim
Things Are Grim is a supernatural queer romcom about falling in love first and asking questions later. Follow Clara, local barista, as she meets the cool and somewhat delusional woman of her dreams. Could it possibly be true that the mysterious Lady Luna is actually a grim reaper...? It's hard to say, but Clara isn't about to let this real-life fairytale escape her!
Please enjoy this introduction to the world of Things Are Grim! We hope this game serves as a self contained short whilst opening the door for new episodes and other fun stuff in the future :) Over the next few months we'll be putting out some updates, so be on the lookout for new builds~
This game was created in large part thanks to the 2022 Queer Games Bundle, as well as the Trans Witches are Witches bundle hosted by Kritiqal.
Featuring a 21k linear story, along with a full soundtrack (and editing!) by Zaozoruzhna~
