Gruntz Demo

It takes wits and wisdom to work your way through Monolith's new Puzzle-Powered brain game: Gruntz! Along the way, you'll experience side-splitting dialogue, rich hand-painted backgrounds, and the cutest, gooey-est creatures on the planet!

Gruntz can wield over twenty amazingly cool toolz with which to navigate the terrain, defend against the attacking hordez, or charge into pitched battle. I used my spyz tool (shh...don't tell anyone I let the Grunt out of the sack on this extra tool) to infiltrate our game designer's fort and bring back the goodz on four of these incredibly functional devicez.

1. Boomerangz are long-range wooden weaponz that can only be used to attack enemy Gruntz. A Grunt with Boomerangz can hit multiple Gruntz with a single throw, but if you're not careful, you'll hit your own Gruntz! When a Grunt throws a boomerang, he must be standing at the same spot that the boomerang was thrown from in order to catch it again.
2. Goober Strawz are giant plastic strawz that are used by Gruntz to suck up Goo Puddlez and to whack enemy Gruntz. When one of your Gruntz uses a Goober Straw to suck up a Goo Puddle, the Goo gets added to your Goo Well. When your Goo Well is full, a new Grunt will start baking in your first available Grunt oven. You can create a new Grunt by left-clicking on a Grunt oven with a fully baked Grunt in it and dropping him on a flashing Grunt Creation Pad that matches the color of your Gruntz. Shovelz are used by Gruntz to fill in holez, dig out Moundz, and smack enemy Gruntz.
3. Shovelz are slightly more powerful than Gauntletz, but not as powerful as Clubz. In each world, the holez and Moundz look a bit different, so be sure to keep your eye out for them!
4. Timebombz are stickz of dynamite that are bundled together and hooked up to a timer that will explode a few seconds after they are set. A Timebombz explosion will destroy any Gruntz, Brickz, and breakable objectz within a small radius of the explosion.
