    Grindstone is an awesome arcade puzzler in match-3 style. Its cartoonish visuals with refreshing gameplay are more than enough to make it a must play for every fan of arcade games.

    The basic concept of grindstone is incredibly simple. With more than 200 puzzles, it nevertheless brings with it many hours of fun. Unfortunately, the mouse support of the PC-version is clumsy and therefore, we strongly recommend using a gamepad.

Grindstone is the most unsatisfying, pay-to-win-feeling game that somehow doesn't have microtransactions. Grinding has rarely felt so empty and pointless. So much color and life wasted on such a dull, one-note game. Expand

    Pay to win trash. One of the most overrated games I've seen in a while. Don't bother.

It takes about 5 minutes to explore everything that Grindstone has to offer. After that, it's just hours and hours of mindless grinding, trying to beat 10 levels just to experience a sliver of a predictable new gameplay element which is run into the ground over the course of the next 20 levels.

    While all games are technically time-wasters, Grindstone is unique in that it makes wasting time feel like unpleasant, unrewarding work.
