Since 2019, Godtear: Grimgut, The Vile & Retchlings has captivated fans of area control and variable powers with its design.

How It Plays

Area Majority / Influence

You're competing to have the most presence in key areas on the board — think of it like a friendly turf war.

Grid Movement

Pieces move on a grid of squares — straightforward movement that still leaves room for deep tactical thinking.

Once-Per-Game Abilities

You have a powerful ability you can use just once — choosing the perfect moment to unleash it is super satisfying.

Variable Player Powers

Each player has unique abilities that make their experience different — finding the best way to use yours is half the fun.

About This Game

"A wicked sight enough to trouble the bravest of souls, Grimgut is a lumbering mass of spoilt flesh, truly earning the alias of the Vile. Unlike others who seek to attract a band of followers, Grimgut instead creates the Retchlings, the remains of those unfortunate enough to find their way into his gullet." This set includes Grimgut, 5 Retchlings, Grimgut's banner and profile cards. —description from the publisher
