Curse of the Dark

Investigate disappearances in a remote mountain village by exploring a Gothic castle and its dungeon. Players co-operatively build the castle’s floorplan with map tiles, reveal new rooms, and work through puzzle books and interactive components to advance a branching story. Teams have a tiered hint system to assist progress, and the scenario can be attempted solo. The game is designed as a one-time, destructible escape experience—some puzzles require cutting, folding, or writing on components—though printable replacements are available from the publisher for replay.
