Four months since it was greenlit for release on Steam. Five years since it was crowdfunded on Indiegogo. Twenty-three years since its development began after the cancellation of Stones of Arnhem. Grimoire: Heralds of the Winged Exemplar, the game that was meant to be Cleveland Mark Blakemore's answer to Sir-Tech's failure to produce a sequel to the legendary Wizardry VII, has somehow survived through multiple eras of gaming and emerged intact from the other side. It's only fitting that the final release of such a mindbogglingly weird game has come to us as a complete surprise. Gentlemen, ITZ here:
