Release Date: August 18, 2015
An action game developed by Tribute Games with two-player multiplayer cooperation in mind. The gameplay is based on an incredibly simple formula — combat takes place on an arena that spans across the entire screen, which is then invaded by subsequent waves of enemies, such as orcs, skeletons, and goblins. In Curses 'N Chaos, the player assumes the role of a mighty warrior or an arcane arts mistress.
Curses 'N Chaos is a two-dimensional minimalistic action game for PC and PSV in which players fight subsequent waves of enemies. The title was developed by Tribute Games, an independent Canadian studio. The developer is well-known thanks to its award-winning and well-received games: Wizorb. Both productions were inspired by classical 16-bit console bestsellers and tried to recreate their unique atmosphere. Curses 'N Chaos follows the same path, paying a tribute to many platformer games from arcade machines.
The gameplay formula of Curses 'N Chaos is incredibly simple. The entire game is set in a level that spans the entire screen. Subsequent waves of differently armed opponents and monsters, such as goblins, skeletons, orcs, and the like, appear on it, while the player assumes the role of a character that has to survive as long as possible under their onslaught. There are two different heroes to choose from: an arcane arts mistress and a fierce warrior. Both are different in of their fighting style.
We have a limited amount of time to eliminate each wave of enemies, and should we exceed it, our characters die. Defeated enemies drop items, which let us regenerate health and offer various bonuses, as well as coins. Between battles, we can visit the store where we can buy potions for the acquired money. The most expensive and powerful of them all allows us to fight the final boss.
The game was designed with two-player cooperation in mind.
Both the game’s graphics and music seem as if they were taken straight out of productions developed in the first half of the ‘90s or the late ‘80s. The style of Curses 'N Chaos for PC and PSV should therefore appeal to retro fans.
