Nippon Ichi Software
Upon release, the game met a generally positive reception; praise went to its narrative and implementation of RTS gameplay on a console, but many faulted the audio and controls. Despite Kamitani planning sequels, "GrimGrimoire" was a commercial failure and Nippon Ichi Software did not continue the series. The character Lujie Piche crossed over into Nippon Ichi Software's "Soul Nomad &amp; the World Eaters" as part of the two companies' collaboration. Vanillaware would later reimagine their early gameplay and presentation ideas for "GrimGrimoire" in 2019's "".
