Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“At this current state, we're confident you'll have fun with Cursed Companions! We have had some really funny laugh out loud moments. However, there are still a lot of content and features we want to add. We also need your feedback to help with game balance, phrases used to activate the spells, curses and so on. There is so much stuff more we want to add!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate that game will be fully complete in 6 months. We want to ensure a great complete game. And it all depends the players' feedback too.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Our plan for the full version of Cursed Companions is for it to have more monsters, more accursed lands, dungeon locales, more items and rooms so that there will be a lot more depth and replayability.

We plan to have a Team Mode - an 8v8 mode that we believe will provide more chaotic fun.
Another feature we plan to have is a Traitor Mode - an 'Among Us' style game mode where some players will secretly attempt to sabotage the others.

We plan to also add more support for more languages, so that other non-English speakers can play this game in their own language.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Cursed Companions is fully playable with up to 8 players in co-op mode. All the main game mechanics, voice mechanics and base content is complete. There are 3 main maps as of now, coupled with a procedurally generated dungeon, the current gameplay experience is varied and fun. Most monsters, items and facilities to upgrade are already in this current build.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We don't plan to change our price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We need the community to help with the game balance and content. As the game uses a Voice as a main mechanic, we believe that there are many monsters/items/features that can benefit from ideas from the community. We're watching content creators and looking at your reactions on Discord, Twitch and so on. We're looking forward to see new tactics and a meta emerge, they're great for inspiring new ideas for creatures and items to improve the game play and fun factor.”

About This Game

Cursed Companions is a co-op horror game that listens to every word the players are saying. Every player is cursed with a forbidden word, like “Okay” or “I think”. If anyone says it, the player takes damage.

When you say the right words, you can heal your friends or disarm traps.

"Mommy loves you... I'm sorry, I'm sorry... IT'S IN THE BOOK! IT'S IN THE BOOK!" - MichiMochievee

But when you say the wrong words (i.e. "Follow me!") you could wipe out your team.

Dungeons are randomly generated, every run is a brand-new experience.

Over twenty different monsters to encounter and ‘befriend’.

The Foul Moth

"[The Foul Moth] kinda looks like a Labubu." - QuarterJade.

Watch your mouth! The Foul Moth punishes players who swear.

The Meatgrinder

Roast or get roasted! Shout “Who’s your daddy!” to send the Meatgrinder packing!

The Bride

Scare The Bride away! Bad pickup lines and awkward confessions are your best defense!

Team up and tackle a variety of co-op modes. Battle bosses in two standalone stages or dive into tougher dungeons in Challenge Mode. Push your limits in Endless Mode to see how long you can survive.

Monsters aren’t the real threat in Traitor Mode; your so-called friends are. It’s a chaotic social deduction mode where Traitors secretly sabotage the mission.

But don’t be too obvious as others can call an ‘Emergency Meeting’ to vote you out!

Unlock unique skins as rewards for your greatest achievements! Kill bosses, survive brutal challenges, or simply get killed in unique circumstances.

“Oh that’s nice… I can be a knight!” - Foolish

Customize your home and let your friends see how cursed your taste really is!
