Fear Tall Grass

About the Game

Humanity is being hunted.

Hordes of Vilekin rise from the tall grass, and mainly boys and old men remain to hold the line. You are Gray, a child thrust into a holy war, who must be the very best in controlling the same monsters who hunt him.

Join humanity's last crusade against extinction.

Fear Tall Grass is a dark fantasy creature-battler fused with board-game movement, strategic combat timers, and high-stakes risk management.

FEATURES

Tactical Board Combat

• Roll to move across multiple looping battlefield paths.

• Plan positioning to control encounters and avoid deadly tiles.

• Strategies placing tile effects, resource management, and escalating threats.

• Survive long enough to face the boss or complete your quest.

Movement is simple. Mastery is not.

Command and Evolve Vilekin

• Capture corrupted creatures and bend them to your will

• 6 elemental types: Hydro, Pyro, Nature, Physical, Volt, and Rock

• 15 unique creatures per type (90 total at launch)

• Evolve them into stronger forms

• Build synergistic teams around attack timers and Command Points

Victory isn’t about button-mashing, it’s about timing.

Combat Built on Pressure

• Real-time attack timers during turn-based planning

• Spend limited Command Points to trigger abilities

• Swap creatures strategically to counter types

• Lose all creatures? You're fine. Die yourself? Never met someone who won with that strategy.

Every fight feels like holding the line against extinction.
