What the game is

Possess a vessel. Descend. Extract. Rebuild.

GRAIN ROT is a physics-heavy dungeon crawler where your Living Spark inhabits wooden vessels, explores shifting ruins, secures resources, and expands an Outpost between runs. A broken vessel is not always the end—but a full party wipe before extraction costs unsecured loot.

Before you play: these guides cover the core loop, co-op, purchases, PC requirements, and saves. They do not include control layouts, enemy walkthroughs, or crash-fix steps.
