THE NIGHTMARE STARS UPDATE The Nightmare now keeps its own treasure: every nightmare level holds THREE DARK STARS — fast, all candy, untouched — earned with no checkpoints and no mercy. Claim all three to unlock the next nightmare. Climb all 25 to face the true endgame. Also in this update: • THE BLACK FLAME reforged — the reigning Nightmare champion now wears a deep crimson veil and casts real crimson light on the world. One player on Earth holds it. • THE FIRST FLAME reforged — the Flawless champion glows warm gold, with orbiting star-gems and a golden light of their own. • Reset Save now keeps your candy AND your crowns — possessions are never wiped, only progress. • The game politely tells you when an update is out. • Map polish and bug fixes. See you in the dark.

Bug fixes! This update resolves a rare black screen that could appear after using Reset Save. Thanks for playing Grimmwick — see you on the Night Board!

THE TRICKS UPDATE THE CANDY STORE opens in the Costume Cauldron! Candy packs support Grimmwick — candy buys tricks, hearts and looks. Never levels. Everything is still earn-able by playing. FOUR PERMANENT TRICKS to spend it on: • Ember Pop — your spin flings a searing ember • Bat Wings — four flutter-jumps and a glide, forever • Gummy Guard — a gummy bubble that eats one hit and re-forms • Sweet Tooth — every dropped candy comes out DOUBLED Tricks stack — equip any or all. They sleep in Nightmare Mode and rest for Flawless runs. NIGHTMARE MODE IS NOW OPEN FROM NIGHT ONE — no lanterns, 3 lives, everything faster. Conquer all 25 levels to earn THE NIGHTMARE CROWN and the NIGHTBREAKER outfit. Hold #1 on its board and THE BLACK FLAME burns on you — one player in the world wears it, until someone takes it. CHALLENGE A FRIEND straight from the Night Board — sends your time and a download link. CLOUD SAVES — your save now follows your iCloud to new devices and survives reinstalls. Plus: leaderboard tabs reordered, Gearworks candy retuned, and a big bag of polish. See you on the board.

NIGHTMARE MODE You finished the story. Now finish it HIS way. A new toggle on every district map remixes all 25 levels under a blood moon: no checkpoints, falls restart the level, three lives, and every enemy runs faster. Same layouts. No mercy. • THE NIGHTMARE: a third leaderboard. Conquer all 25 and your total time joins the board — every improved level lowers it. • Nightmare progress is tracked separately. Your stars and crown are safe. Grimmwick is free. No ads. Ever.

THE NIGHT GETS BIGGER • TWO new playable characters: ride ZOE THE WITCHLING's broom, or finish the story to play as GRIMM himself with his Shadow Leap. • THE NIGHT BOARD: Game Center leaderboards. Race the fastest night, chase the flawless 75-star run. • THE FIRST FLAME: a one-of-a-kind reward worn by ONE player in the world — the reigning champion. Take it if you can. • A rebuilt, more heartfelt ending. Walk him home. • THE STAR CROWN celebration, a new app icon, a friendlier map, kinder tutorials, dozens of fixes. Grimmwick is free. No ads. Ever.
