Beowulf is a wanderer who learns about a man-eating creature called Grendel, which comes in the night to devour warriors trapped at the Outpost. The Outpost is ruled by Hrothgar. He has a daughter, whose husband may have been murdered by the Outpost's master of arms.

VIBE

A brutal, low-fi fantasy actioner. Expect visceral combat and a grim, mythic tone. It’s a straightforward, no-frills take on the legendary warrior’s early exploits, heavy on the swordplay and monster-slaying.
