Now and then, a game catches my eye, and I review it on a whim. The original Grime, which was released back in 2021, was such a title. It was a solid

The successor to the nice, although not without errors, arcade game was supposed to leave its predecessor far behind, offering more varied gameplay, even nicer visuals and many interesting ideas. Did it work?

Grime 2 has decent progression and looks amazing, but it loses some of what made the original so weird and unique.
