Goblins & Grottos

Goblins & Grottos is a comedy platformer in which you play as a goblin escaping a team of greedy adventurers. Its handcrafted pixel-art levels use physics interactions: climb walls, hang from chains, push barrels onto enemies’ heads, or lure adventurers into traps with the promise of gold coins.

Story and campaign

The built-in campaign begins with the death of your family and follows your journey through dungeon levels to the surface world. You then travel through a forest, a town and a mountain while tracking down your family’s killer. The adventurers gain levels, equipment and skills as they pursue you, but your goblin does not; the adventurers are focused on the experience points they will earn by killing you.

Levels and creation

Explore dungeons, forests and castles filled with puzzles, traps and greedy adventurers. The built-in level editor lets you make maps and puzzle mechanics, then share them online and play levels made by other players. You can set traps, puzzles and adventurers, including their skills and the dialogue they say as events unfold.

You can also add stories through creatures, scrolls and books, and create cutscenes with the game's cutscene-editing system. The game includes its campaign as well as player-shared maps and stories, along with a soundtrack and game audio. You can eat muffins.
