Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We’re launching in Early Access because the game is already playable today, but it still needs more testing, tuning, and polish. Early Access gives us time to improve features, add and balance enemies in Campaign mode, and continue fixing and tuning multiplayer with player feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect to stay in Early Access for at least several months, but we do not want to set a firm end date too early. The timeline depends on testing, balance work, and how much tuning and bug fixing the game still needs.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan for the full version to include a more complete and better-balanced Campaign mode, a broader enemy lineup, improved multiplayer stability, and more overall polish across the game. The exact scope may change during Early Access as we continue development and respond to feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is fully playable today. Core gameplay is in place, Campaign mode is playable, and multiplayer is available and functional. Multiplayer still has some bugs, and the game still needs more balance, tuning, and general polish.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We expect the price to be somewhat higher after Early Access as more content, fixes, and polish are added. Early Access players will be getting in earlier at a lower price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to use community feedback throughout Early Access to help guide development. We’ll pay close attention to bug reports, balance feedback, and player suggestions, especially for Campaign tuning and multiplayer, and use that feedback to help prioritize updates.”

About This Game

You sat down. You picked up the cards. The room closed around you.

Grimshaw's Blotto is a gothic 1v1 card-and-dice strategy game of hidden plays, cruel drafts, and blood-bought power. Build two lanes, tuck your effects face-down, then reveal and roll. Your dice are your attack and your defense at once: win a lane, and the difference in rolls becomes damage.

Every round makes the table meaner. Draft stronger dice and harsher effects between rounds. Hide blessings, curses, and Pith beside your visible bones. Spend Dram to claim power now and survive the cost later. After the first lane resolves, the winner can Press and turn the second lane into a double-damage gamble. Every decision is a bluff. Every bluff is a wound waiting to open.

Climb through Grimshaw's Inner Circle in a single-player campaign as the room grows colder, the faces less human, and the table shows more of its hunger. Or sit across from another player online and learn how much either of you is willing to bleed before you break.

Key Features

  • 1v1 card-and-dice duels built around simultaneous hidden placement

  • A two-lane system where every roll is both offense and defense

  • Visible base dice and hidden effect cards that create bluffing, reads, and reversals

  • Between-round drafting that escalates both decks into deadlier shapes

  • Blood-cost powers, Pith cards, and The Press turning one good read into a lethal swing

  • A gothic single-player campaign against Grimshaw's monstrous Inner Circle

  • Online multiplayer for head-to-head duels at the same cursed table
