Grimm Trials is a strategic trick-taking card game set in the dark fairy-tale world of the Brothers Grimm.
Players choose one of six characters, each pursuing a secret Trial while competing to win tricks. Every trick matters, but winning is not always the best choice — players must judge when to take control, when to hold back and how much of their true intentions to reveal.
The game combines classic trick-taking mechanics, hidden objectives, tactical card play and dark fairy-tale atmosphere. Familiar Grimm-inspired characters and folklore create a richly illustrated setting, while the secret Trials add tension and replayability to every round.
Designed for 3–5 players, Grimm Trials offers a compact strategic card game experience with direct player interaction and changing objectives.
