What do you do when you're an immortal slave?


STORY

Curse Of Life is an atmospheric first-person puzzle adventure game set in a dark and mysterious Ancient Egypt, where your soul has been cursed and you cannot die - your consciouness just passes into another body.

To break the curse you will have to complete multiple rituals and puzzles designed to mark you both physically and psychologically. 

Will you keep the Eternal Curse or will you get rid of it?


FEATURES

  • No main character - The Gods have cursed your soul making you unable to die. Once you die, your soul is reincarnated into one of the slaves. It's time, for you to take advantage of this immortality.
  • Skill-based puzzles - Some say if you disturb the Temples, you will die a horrible death. Many Puzzles and Obstacles will stand in your way in order to complete the Cleansing Rituals.
  • Immersive - "Curse of Life" brings the player into a dark side of Ancient Egypt. Explore the Ancient Temples and Towns and discover untold secrets about the Eternal Curse.

Disclaimer:

This version is still very early in the development! As you play you may encounter some issues. If you do, feel free to comment down below what they where or, if you want, you can also answer this form. Any help will be extremely appreciated!

So far we have noticed some issues with our lighting(some areas are too dark) and interface(sometimes the quests don't load). If after the first steps towards the guard a quest does not pop up, we suggest you restart the demo. There is no saving, yet so if you return to the main menu, you will restart the game.

We hope you play, enjoy and give us plenty of feedback!

When giving feedback, please reply with your utmost honesty, if there is something wrong, something you don't like or something you think would work better in a different way, we want to know! We are here to make a game for you and we need to know if you love it or not.
