About

Grindstone Interactive is a small, veteran-owned studio building AI-powered RPGs where your choices actually matter.

Every game runs on the same core engine — party-based mechanics, AI-driven narration, and systems that remember what you do. We don't do cutscenes. We don't do rails. You type what your character does, and the world answers back.

Our first title, The Tower Watches, is live now. It's a modern-day dungeon crawler set in a world where mysterious Towers erupted from the ground and nobody has a plan to make them stop. You build a party, climb the floors, manage a dying town, and try not to become a statistic.

Two more games are in development: Really Super Average, a superhero RPG where not every hero gets a cape, and Periodic World, a fantasy RPG based on the novel Periodic Mage.

We build games the way we'd want to play them: gritty, funny, and honest about the fact that the world bites back.
