About this game

Welcome to Grimshore. Please mind the smell. You opened your very own hot dog shop, and the customers keep coming. There's just one small business problem: demand is high, and meat runs out fast. Luckily, the foggy little town of Grimshore has no shortage of raw material, if you're not too fussy about where it comes from. Meat Grinder is a first-person simulation with a rotten heart. Run an honest hot dog stand by day, take care of your supply chain by night, and try not to think too hard about the difference.

Run the shop

Grill the sausages, slice the buns, fry the potatoes, squirt the sauce, wrap it up, and hand it over with a smile. Keep customers happy, keep the money coming, and reinvest in your growing fast food empire. It's a cozy little cooking routine, right up until you run out of stock.

Solve your supply problem

When the freezer runs dry, the beef carcasses can only cover so much. Grimshore's graveyard is quiet, the tools are cheap, and the meat grinder doesn't ask questions. Head out after dark, source some fresh ingredients, and get them back to the shop before opening time.

Uncover the town's secrets

Behind the fog and the frying oil, Grimshore has stories it would rather keep buried. Take on side quests, meet the locals, follow the threads, and dig into your own character's past, whether or not you like what you find down there.

Cooked in glorious low-poly

Lo-fi retro visuals, chunky textures, and a grimy nostalgic atmosphere give the whole town that unsettling old-school horror feel. Comfort food has never looked so uncomfortable.
