Joystiq is reporting an interesting bit of news regarding the upcoming PC title American McGee's Grimm. Mainly, it will be free for 24 hours. American McGee's Grimm is an episodic PC title from the creator of the stellar Alice and the not so stellar Bad Day L.A. It is a re-telling of famous and not-so famous fairytales, however, no more happy endings. The game will have players traveling to various bright and cheerful locations changing the "Happily Ever After" to and ending more to the likes of Edgar Allen Poe. The first episode, "A Boy Learns What Fear Is", will be released on GameTap July 23rd for download.
