I'm a Real Boy!
It may be redundant to say, but this game is full of disturbing imagery. When you consider the fact that the guy who made this is American McGee, (yes, that one) it's kind of a given.

  • Grimm himself is rather repulsive despite the limited art for it. He's dirty, smelly and has mix-matched eyes and is literally a walking force of corruption. He destroys all forms of happiness and fun and makes things dangerously dark and twisted with a mere thought.
  • The forms people become as the worlds are corrupted. They are either turned into pale imitations, demonic forces or walking corpses.
  • In Pinocchio pictured above, Grimm decides to change the titular character from an innocent (and in this case Ditzy) Puppet into an Ax-Crazy and psychopathic monster whom at the end of the story, Grows big enough to dwarf the earth itself and proceeds to stomp on and destroy it.
  • Just how powerful is Grimm? During the events of the game he corrupts both God and Satan.
