Grounded is a first-person survival game that may be played in either first or third person. The protagonist of the game gets shrunk to the size of an ant and must live in a garden. Spiders, bees, dust mites, and ladybugs are among the bugs and insects that live in the garden. Spiders are one of the apex predators in the game that will chase down the players.
