  • Treats in Grim Treats in Grim Treats in Grim Treats in Grim Treats in Grim Treats are scattered objects that are found in every level. The player needs to obtain all of these to gain access to the portal. There are five varieties.
  • A closed portal in Grim An opened portal in Grim Portals are the main goal that need to be reached to complete a level. They begin unlocked, but open once the player has collected all pieces of treats in the level.
  • A bat in Grim Bats will either remain stationary in the air or fly in a back-and-forth vertical pattern. The player and mummy can jump on top of bats and use them to reach greater heights.
  • Pumpkins in Grim Pumpkins are stationary and act as a spring when jumped on.
  • Mummy helper in Grim The mummy is a playable character that appears in every level starting from level 4. He behaves similarly to the protagonist, although he cannot jump as high. The player can alternate between the mummy and the protagonist and use either character as a solid platform for an extra boost. Although the mummy can collect treats, he cannot enter an unlocked portal.
