Grimbly’sCatalog of Affordable Beasts
Crate0
A crooked shop front in a dark, wet alley at night. Its bay window glows amber and is crowded with cages, jars, and small shapes that are looking back.

Coming to Steam · Spring 2027

Order a monster.
Build it on a budget.
Regret nothing.

Grimbly’s has dealt in affordable beasts from the wrong end of the alley since before the lamps were lit. Pick a body, bolt things to it, and find out in the arena whether the bet was any good.

The shop floor

Mind the cages. Touch nothing twice.

Seven places worth your attention, and one figure in the back doorway who is not on the staff.

Inside the shop: tall iron cages along the left wall, a long counter crowded with bottles and candles, a cabinet of drawers and a rack of weapons on the right, and a curtained doorway at the back with a tall figure standing in it.BeastsPartsWeaponsOrder FormCustomer BuildsSealed cratesShipping & Returns

In the cages

Beasts in stock

Two models. Each leaves in a crate, assembled, with opinions.

How ordering works

  1. I

    Pick a body

    A spiked tank on four legs, or something that floats and thinks unkind thoughts. The body decides what the shop will agree to bolt on.

  2. II

    Spend the budget

    Every part costs Build Points and every build gets the same number of them. Points spent on wings are points not spent on the dart gun you definitely wanted.

  3. III

    Call the bet

    Then it fights. Every battle is that budget being argued with, in real time, by something else’s monster.

From the cabinet and the rack

Customers also regretted

Four of the sixteen things you can bolt on or hand over. The whole catalog has all 18, and 14 sealed crates besides.

“I read the returns policy twice. Then I chose violence.”

The honest part

This is a video game.

Grimbly’s Catalog of Affordable Beasts is a monster builder and arena battler from Wisp & Wight Lampworks, coming to Steam in spring 2027. The shop is where the game starts. The beasts, parts, prices, and refusals in stock on this site are the ones in the build on our desks today; the sealed crates in the back room are designed and not yet built.

About the game

The real mailing list

Nothing in this shop can be bought yet.

The catalog is fiction until the game ships. Leave an address and the studio will write once, when the Steam page opens, and rarely after that. It goes on the Keeper’s List, which the studio shares across its games.
