Legend of Grimrock 2 is still the best in class (Revisit) 

The first one is a gem.

Loved the game, great clip!

I only played these last year and they were one of my games of 2023. I've also been on a bit of a retro gaming binge the last couple years and it has been amazing. So many great titles that are in many cases so much more engaging than what is made nowadays. Just as you said, brain detox.

I have always been a fan of older games and styles. My only game in this genre I had played until recently was Bards Tale. I am now playing “The Quest” and this is going to be next on my list. I DO wish more dungeon crawlers where open world RPGs like The Quest is.

I had a lot of fun with this game. Nice to see it's getting some attention :b

I've been a fan of the genre since the '90s. I hesitated for a long time before trying this series. I picked up the bundle on sale just like you mentioned. I had finished the first game with the Master Quest mod and started the second one just about the time you uploaded this video. I have to say the second one is leagues better than the first. I love the first one to death, but towards the second half of the game, It felt like it wasn't progressing enough, The enemies were too repetitive, And it really became torturous at one point without much reward. This sequel fixed the issue, gives the player an open world and choices to explore where they want, If you're skilled enough and you save scum enough, You can even take on an area that was meant for later game with a lower level party, but it takes some luck. But it overall feels really free. The monster variety isn't an issue anymore, there's no more copy paste giant snails and spiders. The puzzles are more innovative. Interlinking the answers and the questions from one side of the map to the other, I find myself really wanting to turn it back on when I get home. It feels like the love child of wizardry 8 and dungeon master. My only complaint in the sequel Is that the party is limited to four members, but there's too many classes I want to explore. I think it would have been better suited to allow for six players in the party at the same time. Another big improvement would have been having merchant shops that would allow you to sell and buy your goods. Oh and I almost forgot, It could have used way more spells. They could have added paralyzed, sleep, something to make the creatures attack each other, And way more offensive spells. Also would have been nice to have a healing spell class character. They could have made unlocking the spells part of the reward for finding secrets

Keep in mind that in most countries, it is a crime to play Legend of Grimrock 2 before the original Legend of Grimrock.
