Hello friends. This is a Let’s Play video of “Curse Rounds”. A roguelike with unique curses, 60+ cards, incredible shots and power-ups. No two attempts are ever the same.
In the stark world of Curse Rounds, every step forward is marred by cruel fate and clever design. This 1-bit, monochrome roguelike transforms bad luck into the heart of the action, tasking players with surviving wave after wave of relentless foes while accumulating sinister curses from a deck of over 60 unique cards. Each room introduces new challenges—none ever the same—with every curse further warping the bullet-hell chaos, forcing split-second decisions and relentless skill checks. Retro pixel art meets modern gameplay unpredictability, crafting a brutally hard but endlessly replayable experience where the only certainty is that things will get gloriously worse before they get better.
