GRIM is an Exclusive VR Multiplayer Survival game where you must immerse yourself in its red wasteland, where survival is not just a choice but a grueling battle against nature and other desperate players. You must gather resources, craft, and build your base, all to stay alive.
In addition, the player must ensure their survival by mining resources, making objects, building structures and defending himself against enemy animals and other players.
The world has several areas such as jungle, desert and caves and is generated procedurally, so it is not prefabricated.
Likewise, the quest system is procedural and always creates new challenges.
