About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey there, gamers! Ready for a quick and thrilling adventure? In Cursed!?, you're the unlucky one, cursed by an evil witch. The only way out? Face monsters in the dark forest and collect some souls for the sorceress to complete her ritual. The catch is, everything you touch turns to ash, so your only hope lies in weapons and items from long-dead adventurers you find along the way.
Every turn is a new surprise, as the items you find are random, and you'll need to get creative to deal with whatever luck throws your way, whether it's a weak weapon or a monster with annoying abilities. The 'push your luck' mechanic is the heart of the game: will you risk more to get powerful items that could save you at the crucial moment, or will you play it safe? It's a solo card game that fits in your pocket, perfect for those times when you want a quick, engaging challenge without the fuss.
With games lasting less than 10 minutes, Cursed!? is ideal for those who enjoy testing their luck and making quick decisions. The dark fantasy art and theme add a special touch to the experience, making each attempt to break the curse an exciting journey. If you're into solo, fast-paced games with that hint of risk, this one's for you!
