Getting Started
You're watching VisiHow. This is part two of our series on how to play Legend of Grimrock on the iPhone 6. In this part, we'll discuss getting started in the game.
Steps
- 1This consists of three letters, "LoG", and is labeled "Grimrock".Navigate to the Legend of Grimrock icon.
- 2When Legend of Grimrock launches, a landscape mode screen will show up. We'll have the option to start a new game or view the credits. Since we're new to this, we're going to start a new game.Give the icon one tap.
- 3Simply tap on "New Game".
- 4The first of these is "Difficulty". It "Scales combat difficulty" but "Does not affect puzzles."Review the different options.
- 5We have a number of options to choose from. There is "Easy", "Normal", and "Hard". Our recommendation is, for those first starting out and learning the game, "Easy".Tap "Normal".
- 6The next option we have is creating characters. If we choose to create characters, then that means we'll have the option of creating each individual person in the party. Finally, we have the option for "Old School Mode". This means that we will not have a map. We will need to make a map as we go along. This is something that makes the game extremely difficult, especially if used to the newer ways games tend to be, where things are often fairly easy. Since this is our first tutorial and we're getting started, we're just going to go ahead and tap "START". Later, we'll come back and demonstrate how to create characters and we'll show what "Old School Mode" looks like.Tap "Easy".
- 7We'll be taken to the intro. It's sort of an overview of the game and how it starts and progresses. We're going to skip past the intro. For the purposes of this tutorial, we will give a quick overview of the game. Basically, our characters, or the people in our little party as we play through, have been sentenced to be locked up in Mount Grimrock. There is an underground set of tunnels and passages left by a past civilization, which will allow us to escape. The catch is, no one has ever escaped Mount Grimrock. Perhaps we will be the first. Let's go ahead and skip the intro.Tap "START".
- 8Alternatively, tap "Next" on the right to view it.Tap "SKIP INTRO" in the upper-right corner.
- 9We'll see that we have four characters, each represented by an icon. Whichever character is currently active will have the active option. We can move forward with the arrow buttons, or by tapping the screen.Once the game starts, examine the panel on the right.
- 10We have "MENU" options. The sleep option is labeled "Zzz". We also have the "MAP".Look at the options running down the left side.
- 11We will start with the map, as that's the most basic.Tap "MAP".
- 12We'll see that we've gone nowhere yet. As we go, we'll see different options that pop up. We can annotate and mark the map. We can find our current location, and scroll up and down through various map options.Look at the map when it loads.
- 13That takes us back to the main screen.Tap "MAP" again.
- 14Pressing sleep will allow us to sleep for awhile. It's a great way to recover health and other things for our characters. However, it is possible that we will be attacked while sleeping. We don't recommend doing it in dangerous parts of the dungeon, which is most of the dungeon.Press "Zzz" to sleep.
- 15Tap "Zzz" again to wake up.
- 16This will give us a series of things that we can do. We can tap "RESUME" or "MENU" to go back. We can load a saved game. We can save our current game. We can tap on "STATISTICS" or "TUTORIAL" to get a quick tutorial of how to use or perform different options and functions in the game. We can tap "MAIN MENU" to go back to the main menu, which will allow us to reset options, such as making it easier or harder or creating our own party.Tap "MENU".
- 17Tap "OPTIONS".
- 18It makes things a bit easier on the phone battery. Alternatively, reduce the phone's screen brightness or consult our VisiHow tutorial on how to save battery on the iPhone 6.Tap "Battery saver" if desired.
- 19Tapping on "RIGHT" switches it to "LEFT" and vice versa.Tap "RIGHT" to change where the controls are.
- 20This lets us adjust the music volume.Tap in the bar next to "Music volume".
- 21This allows us to adjust the volume of sound effects.Tap in the bar next to "SFX volume".
- 22These options are generally personal options. They depend on handedness, on whether loud music or soft is preferred, and the same for sound effects. For our purposes, we have everything off for this tutorial.Tap the bar next to "In-game gyro effects" to adjust this.
- 23It is in the top left-hand corner of the screen.Tap "BACK" when ready.
- 24This closes the menu.Tap "MENU".
- 25Tap on the forward-pointing arrow to go forward one step.
- 26Keep tapping to move forward.
- 27Tap the diagonal arrows to look around.
- 28Look and step forward once more.
- 29Look around by tapping the diagonal arrows.
- 30We want to take it.Press and hold on the torch.
- 31Drag the torch to one of the hands on the right side of the screen.
- 32We have put it in our hands. This will make things much brighter.Drop it over a hand.
- 33On the right, there's a set of writing on the wall.Look around again.
- 34Tap the text.
- 35It gives us the option to "Choose your fate" and "Perish in this cell or pick up the torch". Torches will, over time, burn out. We will want to make sure that we have several of them.Read the text.
- 36Try and find out what's in the dungeon. We have a tutorial option that it is telling us we can do. We do recommend going through a quick walkthrough of the game's tutorial. We are giving you a quick intro to demonstrate how to get into the game and to give some ideas of what the actual game looks like. As we move through various areas, we may want to check our map.Tap the forward-facing arrow to keep moving forward.
- 37Tap "MAP".
- 38We've got a little bit more of the dungeon mapped out for us. The farther we go, the more we'll have mapped.Look at the map.
- 39This will allow you to proceed more quickly and accomplish more in Legend of Grimrock for your iPhone 6. As ever, thank you for choosing VisiHow, and please make sure to leave comments, questions, or suggestions in the area below.Make sure to check out the next part of this tutorial, on equipping and un-equipping items on your characters.

You're watching VisiHow. In this tutorial, we are going to show you how to play Legend of Grimrock on the iPhone 6. This is part of a continuing series, and here we will show you how you can create your own characters. To do that, you're going to need to have the game open.
Steps
- 1We will be given the same options as usual.Tap "NEW GAME".
- 2Tap "Normal" next to "Difficulty".
- 3For the purposes of this tutorial, we will tap "Easy".Tap the preferred difficulty level.
- 4We want to turn it on. The little gray box will slide to the right and turn gold.Tap the bar next to "Create Characters".
- 5For this tutorial, we don't want to be stuck without a map.Leave "Old School Mode" off.
- 6Tap "START" at the bottom of the screen.
- 7We can see that we have four slots where we can add our characters.Look at the panel on the left.
- 8We can change the "Race" and the "Class" and we can specify their "1st trait" and their "2nd trait".Look at the options on the right.
- 9Each tap will generate a random name suggestion. Keep tapping until happy.Tap the die icon near the top right.
- 10Tap the arrow at the top next to "General" when satisfied with the choices on this screen.
- 11We can select the attributes for the character. Increase them as desired.Read through the "Attributes" screen.
- 12Tap the die icon near the top right to randomize attributes.
- 13Tap the minus sign icons to subtract attribute points.
- 14Tap the plus sign icons to add attribute points.
- 15Tap the right-pointing arrow next to "Attributes" at the top of the screen.
- 16We can choose which skills they're good at.Read through the "Skills" screen.
- 17We see "Points left" and "4". We can put those 4 points into one skill or spread them across more than one skill.Look at the bottom of the screen.
- 18For this demonstration, we will put all 4 points in "Armor".Tap the plus icon next to any skill to add points.
- 19Tap the right-pointing arrow at the top of the screen next to "Skills".
- 20We have the basic set-up of our character here.Read through the "Details" screen.
- 21Let's change some of these options.Tap the left-pointing arrow multiple times to get back to the beginning.
- 22We can see that "Humans are the most populous of the sentient races in the world." We can also see that they start off with 4 skillpoints.Tap on the line marked "Race".
- 23"Minotaur" is the next option. They are horned bulls from an old Greek legend.Scroll down to see more options.
- 24We have a lot of strength, but not that much dexterity. We have a lot of vitality, but not that much willpower. Minotaurs have just one skill point. Minotaurs eat a lot of food. Food is a big thing in the game. We may find constantly that we are starving and not having enough food as we play the game. This "Food Consumption +20%" is kind of a hang-up, and we want to be careful with that.Read the "Minotaur" stats.
- 25They are a fairly good class. They have a small subtraction to willpower, and have 2 extra dexterity, which can help with dodging things, especially for rogues. They have 3 skillpoints.Scroll down and read about "Lizardman".
- 26It's at the very bottom. Insectoids are little creepy crawly bugs. They start out with a little less strength and a little less vitality, but they have a lot of willpower and they have some dexterity. They make very good images because of that. They have 3 skillpoints, which is a little bit less than Humans do, but they eat less food. There is a bit of a trade-off there. We can mix and match our party as well. We could have a balance of an Insectoid as a mage, a Lizardman as a rogue, a Minotaur as another rogue or a fighter maybe, depending on what we want to do, and also, of course, our Human.Scroll down and read about "Insectoid".
- 27Tap "BACK" to go back.
- 28If we want, we can change the class.Tap on the row marked "Class".
- 29We have "Fighter", "Mage", and "Rogue". Fighters do one of two things, basically. They either defend extremely well or fight extremely well. They have a lot of damage or a lot of defense. Mages use staves, orbs, and their own hands to create magic spells. Rogues also do two things. They either fight with ranged weapons or they fight with hand-to-hand or unarmed, which is basically on the front lines. Later, as we advance in the game, we will find that rogues are invaluable. The recommended party set-up is one fighter, one mage, and two rogues. Put one hand-to-hand rogue in the front and one ranged rogue in the back. A lot of people prefer a Minotaur for the front rogue. It all depends on personal preferences.Read through the three classes available to choose from.
- 30Tap "BACK" to go back.
- 31Tap on the row marked "1st trait".
- 32Traits are different things that add special abilities for us. If we're aggressive, we do lots of damage. If we're agile, we've got extra dexterity. If we're athletic, we are strong. Right now, we have "Aura" selected. This gives us extra energy. We can choose "Cold-blooded", "Evasive", etc. We can find everything down this list that we would prefer to have.Scroll through the traits.
- 33Tap a trait to select it and tap "BACK" to go back.
- 34Tap the row marked "2nd trait".
- 35The list is exactly the same.Tap a trait to select it.
- 36Tap "BACK" when ready.
- 37Tap the second box from the top on the left-hand side.
- 38Repeat previous steps for customizing the character.
- 39For the purposes of this tutorial, we will add four characters and change their names.Tap the third box from the top on the left.
- 40At the moment, we just have a party of human fighters, which is not a really good thing to do, but we're just trying to show how to get into it.Review the party.
- 41Tap "PLAY" in the bottom left when ready.
- 42We "have unspent ability points" and are being prompted to "Start the game anyway" or go back and spend them. For this demonstration, we will tap "Yes" to go ahead and start the game. We can spend those ability points later, which we showed how to do with our first character.Read the warning, if applicable.
- 43Tap "Skip Intro" in the top right corner.
- 44This will happen just as it did earlier in this series.Wait as the game launches.
- 45Tap the forward-pointing arrow to run forward.
- 46We showed how to do this in the Getting Started section of this tutorial. Now we have a torch.Get a torch.
- 47That will also appear when we level up. It means that we have unspent skills.Note the little arrow icon on the characters.
- 48Tap one of the little arrow icons, if applicable.
- 49Note that it is flashing.Tap on the "SKILLS" tab.
- 50Tap the plus and minus icons to set the skillpoints wherever desired.
- 51Tap "APPLY" when the "Available Skill Points" says "0" and the distribution is desirable.
- 52Tap the "X" near the top right.
- 53We still have two characters with unspent skillpoints.Look at the other characters.
- 54Our character just gained "Protection +1" from spending the skillpoints in "Armor".Note any text that flashes.
- 55If you have questions, comments, or anything else you'd like to have or hear about this game, please let us know in the section below. We'd be happy to help you.

Navigate the Character Menu
You're watching VisiHow. In this tutorial, we are continuing our series on how to play Legend of Grimrock on your iPhone 6. In this section, we're going to discuss character menus and what you can do with them.
Steps
- 1To get to a character menu, simply tap on a character portrait.
- 2We will see the character's name at the top, and underneath, their "Experience" and the amount of "Food" that they have. Beneath this header, we have two grids. On the right, we can see any items that they are carrying and where they're held.Examine the menu that appears.
- 3Tap on the "STATS" tab.
- 4These tell us whether they are strong or smart or fast. It lists their resistance to various elements and things. At the top, it says what they are. Our character is a "Human Fighter".Read through the character statistics.
- 5Tap on the "SKILLS" tab.
- 6As we can see, this fellow doesn't have a great deal of skills, but he's reasonably skilled with armor and swords.Read through the character's skills.
- 7Now we can see what the other character has.Tap another character portrait on the right-hand side to switch characters.
- 8We can see what they have and what they're good at.Tap "STATS".
- 9If they have any items, we can see them here.Tap "ITEMS".
- 10The same applies for each character.Tap another character portrait from the right-hand side.
- 11It is near the top right-hand corner, to the left of the character portraits. Let's rearrange the order of our party. Currently, we have two people in the front and two people in the back.When done with the character menu, tap the "X" button.
- 12Press and hold a portrait.
- 13Drag the portrait onto another position.
- 14The portraits will switch positions. However, we don't normally want to switch this up once we have it set up. We will switch ours back, because we had the two people who are more weak in the back.Release.
- 15It will be one of the two portraits at the top.Tap on the portrait of a character in the front.
- 16Our character has 92 "Health".Tap "STATS".
- 17We will tap on "Yennica Whitefeather", our "Human Rogue".Tap the portrait of one of the back-row characters.
- 18Yennica only has 52 "Health".Read the stats of the back-row character.
- 19Tap on the other back-row character portrait.
- 20We can see that this one only has 42 "Health". They are essentially half as healthy as the people in the front. Our front characters are at least somewhat healthier, especially so in the case of this Minotaur guy. Make sure that the party is always set up the best way. This is especially true if we create our own party, which we demonstrated how to do in the last section of this tutorial.Read the last character's stats.
- 21Tap the "X" to go back.
- 22Thank you for choosing VisiHow. If you have questions, comments, or suggestions, please leave them in the area below.This concludes our tutorial on managing the characters and the character icons in Legend of Grimrock for your iPhone 6.

Use Food and Healing
You're watching VisiHow. In this tutorial, we are going to teach you more about how to play Legend of Grimrock for your iPhone 6. In this part, we're going to talk to you about food and healing.
Steps
- 1In our demonstration, our characters are all a little bit damaged. There are no magic spells in the game that will heal them. Only rest and food and potions will heal them. First, we need to make sure that everybody has food.Look at the character portraits.
- 2Tap a character portrait.
- 3This character has food.Look at the green in the bar marked "Food".
- 4All of our characters have food. If one didn't have food, we could feed them something.Tap through each character's portrait on the right-hand side and look at their food level.
- 5There are two grids beneath the header area. The left-hand grid is where we will see food items if a character is carrying any.Look at the "ITEMS" tabs for each character.
- 6Tap a food item.
- 7Ours says, "Snail Slice", and the "Nutrition value" is half. It would fill up half her bar. We wouldn't normally want to use that yet, because she has more than half a bar already.Read about the food.
- 8To feed a character, tap and hold and drag the food item over their portrait and release.
- 9Because we fed her, it filled her food bar back up all the way. It was more than we needed, but that's fine for this demonstration.Look at the "Food" bar.
- 10Now let's rest and heal the characters.Tap the "X" in the upper-right corner of the header area.
- 11Tap "Zzz" on the left-hand side.
- 12They will start to go up.Watch the health bars.
- 13We're done resting, and there's no more need to rest. Proceed on with the game. Just pay attention to the amount of food available, because if characters don't have food, they will begin to starve. Starving characters do not heal or regain magic. All of our magic and healing are full now.Tap "Zzz" when the health bars are all full.
- 14Thanks for choosing VisiHow and have a great day.This concludes our tutorial on how to feed your characters and heal your characters in Legend of Grimrock for the iPhone 6.

Use Magic Spells
You're watching VisiHow. In this tutorial, we are going over Legend of Grimrock and teaching you how to play it on the iPhone 6. For now, we are going to discuss magic.
Steps
- 1In the bottom right, we have a magic user. In order to learn spells, we have to find the proper runes. Find them by exploring or by looking them up online. There are also scrolls and other things to find in-game that will teach spells. Let's do a quick overview.Look at the character portraits in the top right corner.
- 2Tap the glowing hand icon.
- 3There are nine in total.Look at the list of runes.
- 4The very first one is the fire rune. It's the first of the elemental runes, and what it does is destroys things. It's big on power and big on strength, and it's a requirement for any fire spell we'll ever cast. The next rune is the life rune. This rune is one that represents creation, bravery, light, and health. Any time we cast things that help the party, enchant magic items, or cast spells that might create or give off light, this will come into play. The final rune in the top row is the air rune. It's the second element. It controls air and also gases and storms. It's something that we will use for all of our air spells. We can create magic projectiles with it or clouds of poison, that type of thing. It depends on how we do it and what we have set up with it.Look at the first row of runes.
- 5The first rune in this row is the rune for spirituality. This is mind and spirit. It lets us do things like pass through walls or pass by gates. The center rune is the rune of balance. It is a rune that ties all of the other ones together. It's especially important for protection spells. If we're trying to keep our party safe or make sure everyone has a magic shield around them, then that's the rune that we would be using. The rune on the end is the physicality rune. It represents strength and also the material world. It's something that increases force. We can hit harder or do more damage with that rune.Look at the second row of runes.
- 6On the bottom left, we have the earth rune. This is another elemental rune. It taps into plants and the power of the earth. These are spells that move on the ground, like earthquakes, poisons, those types of things. In the center bottom is the death rune. It is the force that basically empowers all things cowardly or evil or dark or destructive. We will use this for enhancing damage or blocking things. Last, but not least, on the bottom right, we have the ice rune. This is the final element. It's the one that will control cold and water. If we're casting ice spells, we need this. If we tap each rune individually, we can see some of the spells that they may or may not have, if we have a high enough level.Look at the bottom row of runes.
- 7This is the fire spell, lit up in the center.Tap the first rune.
- 8Tap the fire spell.
- 9We shot a fireball.Watch the spell cast.
- 10It may be grayed out temporarily.Look at the hand icon.
- 11Once the character is ready to cast spells again, tap the glowing hand icon.
- 12Let's try the shock spell. We will tap the top right rune.Tap another rune.
- 13Tap the spell in the center to cast it.
- 14In our case, we get an error message. The character "does not meet the skill requirements of this spell." That is because the character is, at the moment, relatively low.Watch the spell cast.
- 15Tap the earth rune.
- 16Again, the character is not high enough to cast that spell. Usually, when we start off, we're just going to be casting that first spell, the fire spell. There are a few others with the fire rune.Tap the spell in the center.
- 17Tap the glowing hand.
- 18Tap the fire rune.
- 19We will drag to the life rune next to it.Tap, hold, and drag from the fire rune to another rune.
- 20We've now got two runes in a row lit up. This will be a spell that will give us some additional options. This character is not high enough for this spell either, as indicated by the question mark over the spell in the center.Look at the screen.
- 21Tap the spell.
- 22In our case, we get a "Fizzle", because we are low level. Let's try a more complicated spell.Watch the spell.
- 23Repeat the previous steps, but drag through additional runes.
- 24As we proceed along, we will be able to cast more spells. Don't stop trying spells. The spells are very very important. Here is one for ice shards.Again, tap the spell to cast it.
- 25This will cast ice shards when the character has the skill requirements to do so. As we continue casting spells, our level and our skill will increase. As our level and skill increases, we will be able to cast more and more spells. We will show a full list of spells in another tutorial.Tap, hold, and drag through the bottom row of runes.
- 26Hopefully you will have a great day, and we'll see you in the rest of our tutorials.Thanks for watching our tutorial on the magic spells.

Solve Puzzles
You're watching VisiHow. In this tutorial, we are going to show you how to play "Legend of Grimrock". Specifically, in this part, we're going to be discussing the puzzles and complexity of certain puzzles. In front of me, there is a gargoyle face with a missing eye. It had two missing eyes originally, but I put the other blue eye back into it. I'm going to show you how I figured that out.
Steps
- 1Tap the diagonal arrows to look left and right. When we turn left, we see a door. When we turn right, we see the face. When we turn right again, we see some writing on the wall.The first thing to do upon finding a puzzle is look around.
- 2Tap the text.
- 3It says, "Heal My Sight". We were unable to figure out what exactly we could do to heal this monster's sight. We assumed that there must be some eyes somewhere.Read the translated text.
- 4We've explored quite a bit of map.Tap "MAP" along the left-hand side.
- 5We had found a blue gem and realized that must be one of the eyes. We began hunting and looking more and more, and we found another blue gem. We will encounter puzzles like this throughout the game where we have to interact with them. There is a variety of things we can try when we encounter a puzzle.Tap "MAP" again to get back to the face.
- 6This lets us look up.Tap and hold on the screen and drag upwards.
- 7This lets us look down.Tap and hold on the screen and drag downwards.
- 8We can get a better idea of what's there. In this case, we needed the other blue gem, which we found just a little while ago.Continue dragging to the side to look around more freely.
- 9Tap a character portrait.
- 10Tap and hold the blue gem.
- 11Do not drop it. The screen will switch to the puzzle, and we will still have the blue gem attached to our finger.Drag the gem over to the hand in the bottom right corner and pause.
- 12Drag the gem over to the empty eye socket.
- 13Release.
- 14On the left, the door has opened. Unfortunately, a monster has come out.Look around.
- 15We will use our mage. Tap the glowing hand icon.Attack the monster.
- 16Tap a rune to activate a spell.
- 17Tap the spell to cast it.
- 18We will use our first character. Tap the character portrait to begin.Use another character to attack the monster.
- 19The slot corresponds to the character portrait. Our first character is in the top left box, and his weapon is in the top left box of weapons.Tap the character's weapon.
- 20Hopefully, we will succeed. It's not ever a guarantee in any of these games, but one can always hope. Notice that we are tapping, and this moves in real time. If we wait, he will just continue attacking us.Continue attacking.

For this demonstration, we will drag the shield back to the inventory to show what that means.Tap, hold, and drag the item from the left side to the grid on the right.
- 31With the shield unequipped, tap "STATS".
- 32Our character has 6 "Evasion" and 1 "Protection".Find "Protection" and "Evasion".
- 33Tap "ITEMS".
- 34Equip the shield.
- 35Tap "STATS".
- 36"Evasion" has increased to 11. The shield has given us the ability to evade more. This means we will live longer, or at least, that's the plan.Find "Protection" and "Evasion".

Bypass Traps
You're watching VisiHow. In this tutorial, we are showing you how to play "Legend of Grimrock" for the iPhone 6. For this part, we are going to be discussing how to overcome traps. As a general rule of thumb, you will find traps, such as the one right in front of us here on the ground, throughout the game. Some of them are easy to spot and some of them are not so easy to spot. The ones that are not so easy to spot are usually the ones that will kill you, but if you're careful, you can see them. In order to avoid them, you have to figure out what to do. As a general rule of thumb, whenever you see a trap, if you look around, you'll find something.
Steps
- 1Tap the arrow pointing diagonally to the left to look left.
- 2Here, we find a clue.Tap the arrow pointing diagonally to the right twice to look right.
- 3Tap the text.
- 4It says, "To close the pit Something needs to fly". There are two ways to make something fly.Read the text.
- 5Let's look at another way.One way is to press and hold an item that's in a character's hand and drag it, in which case, it will be thrown.
- 6Tap a character portrait.
- 7We have a stone.Find something in a character's inventory.
- 8It looks like a hand with a downward-pointing arrow under it. Do not release the item. The screen will change back to the trap, and we will still have the item under our finger.Tap, hold, and drag the stone over to the icon in the bottom right.
- 9We could release to throw it. However, stones are important. We will drag it back to the character portrait and release it to put it back in the inventory.Drag the stone to where it should be thrown.
- 10We will use the burned-out torch that our first character is holding.Tap and hold on an item that has little value.
- 11Drag it above the trap.
- 12Release to throw it.
- 13Now that we've thrown the torch, the trap has closed.Look at the trap.
- 14Tap the forward arrow to move forward.
- 15It's sitting here on this pedestal. We can pick that torch up. Let's show what happens if we do that. We do not recommend following along with us.Find the torch.
- 16We will tap, hold, and drag the torch to a character's equipped slot and release to re-equip it.
- 17We will tap a diagonal arrow twice to look behind us, back the way we came.
- 18We will tap the forward arrow to step off of the pedestal.
- 19When we bypass a trap by throwing something or putting it back, make sure to be careful and not pick up the thing that was thrown, and fall to death.The trap opens and we die.
