    From the Mercenary Kings' creators comes a completely different adventure, with the same graphical style but a ton of new tricks under its sleeve.

    Addictive and well designed gameplay, easy to start, challenging to complete. Curses’n Chaos is a fun brawler with an interesting item combining system. It comes with a nice presentation and an amazing soundtrack.

    Although I wish it did a better job of being captivating for more than a stage or two at a time, those exhausted with 2D brawlers ought to give it a go because of its unorthodox gameplay quirks and pulsating atmosphere.

    You'll need the patience of a saint to break this curse, but if you've got the skills then Curses 'N Chaos can be a very rewarding game. Strong design and a surprising amount of depth offset some minor niggles, and thus with a low price tag, this is well worth bashing your gaming skills against.

    Tribute Games has created a genuinely fun game here, but regular players will soon find themselves tiring of the repetitive gameplay and tough difficulty, meaning that only the hardcore gamers will get anything of value from Curses ‘n’ Chaos.

    While it may be addictively rewarding in small doses, the brutal difficulty and lack of depth is a combo that Curses 'N Chaos can't recover from.

    La cosa es simple, diferentes escenarios en los que resistir oleadas de enemigos que pondrán a prueba tus reflejos y tu habilidad, sin llegar a sentirse injusto, y un jefe final al completar todas las oleadas.
    Para ayudarte tienes varios objetos, armas, curación o buffos, que además podrás combinar entre sí para conseguir objetos aún mejores.
    El juego es ideal para jugar en cooperativo, aunque sigue siendo igual de disfrutable en solo.
    El juego hace honor a su nombre, Maldiciones y Caos en castellano, ya que sobretodo en los primeros intentos en cada nivel vas a maldecir por el caos que vas a ver en tu pantalla que te hará morir una y otra vez.    … Full Review »
