Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
129 of 298 sampled reviews raised it
It isn't about being frightened, seeing an amazing narrative, or even being immersed.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
67 of 298 sampled reviews raised it
Lighting plays a key role in the game’s tone—torches flicker against stone walls, spectral lights glow through fog, and every space feels heavy with history.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
39 of 298 sampled reviews raised it
Overall, I recommend this (if it's on sale) to anyone who's into casual puzzle games but not to someone who thinks they'll be getting a Hidden Object game, for that you should check out: Frankenstein Master of Death or better yet (for way better voice acting and Hidden Object game as a whole) Brink of Consciousness: Dorian Gray Syndrome.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
32 of 298 sampled reviews raised it
The hidden object puzzle aspect in Cursed is exactly how hidden puzzle games SHOULD be and if you’re a fan of that type of gameplay I highly recommend trying this out.
Linux compatibility
Players who bring up Linux compatibility mostly praise it.
8 of 298 sampled reviews raised it
Linux provides all the tools for free, to make a developer's life easy, and Windows has the majority of customers and gets all the support from hardware manufacturers.
