What to Expect
In Cursed!, players cooperate to fight ghosts, werewolves, and other creatures haunting Lord Sommerset's estate. Drawing cards from a shared deck, players use green item cards to expel red creature cards before they overwhelm the group. Coordination and resource management are key to survive the night and achieve the best score possible.
Who Is This Game For?
This game is a cooperative family-friendly card game suitable for ages 10 and up. With a short playing time of around 15 minutes and simple rules, it is accessible to casual gamers and includes a solo mode for single players.
How It Works
Cursed! centers on cooperative gameplay where players draw cards from a face-down deck. Green cards represent items, and red cards are creatures. Players must use items whose combined values meet or exceed a creature's value to drive it away. If too many creatures appear or form a sequence, they attack immediately, forcing players to use limited seals to defend. The goal is to clear all cards while preserving as many seals as possible.
