Press release:
Independent game developer Ahr Ech and drill enthusiasts Devolver Digital have revealed “Pepper Grinder“, an action-packed drill-bit digventure evoking classic platformers with a boring twist!

Shipwrecked and robbed of her treasure by nefarious Narlings, Pepper – a seafaring soul with a passion for prospecting – must spin up her trusty sidearm to reclaim what the mischievous minions stole. Armed with Grinder, Pepper burrows through terrain & water, controls machines, and pulverises all enemies blocking the way towards recovering her missing fortune – with interest!

Pepper’s progress will not be that simple, however, as mysterious beings begin to emerge from the shadows…

Gritty Gameplay

Cruise through a colourfully animated world with precise movements, fluid drilling, and thrilling leaps.

Thrilling Drilling

Chew through the world with Grinder and find new drill bits to ramp up the chaos and solve clever puzzles.

Conquer & Collect

Pick up jewels and other riches during your adventure and cash them in at shops to power up Pepper, open up new paths on the world map, and snag collectible stickers for your sticker book.
