Press release:
13 OCTOBER 2026 – Once upon a time, there was a town called Gruesome Grove. Its streets were painted by hand, its inhabitants were anything but ordinary, and the story took a turn for the macabre. Today, solo developer Kate (Galactic Ghosty) and publisher Iceberg Interactive invite players to step into this creepy yet cosy fairytale as Allogloom launches on PC.

It’s available at just 14,99 €/$ and will have a 10% launch discount in its first two weeks on Steam. It’s also on Epic Games Store, GOG and other digital storefronts. So go ahead: Point & Click that buy button!

Spanning eight chapters and six worlds, this is a story for curious minds and fans of the wonderfully weird.

Beneath its whimsical exterior, Allogloom balances cozy, character-driven exploration with an undercurrent of dread, as Nora learns just how much of her town’s harrowing history is hidden in plain sight. The puzzles are directly interwoven with the town’s lore and its unusual inhabitants, rewarding curiosity and close attention to detail.

The wait is over. Gruesome Grove is open for visitors.
