Horror action-adventure with undead enemies, puzzles, and two playable investigators.
The briefing
Curse: The Eye of Isis is a horror action-adventure game centered on the theft of the sacred Egyptian statuette known as the Eye of Isis from the British Museum. Players must investigate its disappearance, recover the artifact, and return it to the pyramid where it once resided before its curse can spread further.
You can play as either Dr. Darien Dane or his assistant, Victoria Sutton. Each character follows different scenarios while working toward the same objective. The investigation spans seven locations and includes clues, NPC interactions, puzzles, realtime 3D cut scenes, and visual and audio messages that advance the story.
Combat features undead enemies such as zombies and mummies, along with bosses and animated deadly objects. The available weapons include a shotgun, rifle, pistol, truncheon, crossbow, flame-thrower, and mortar gun. Gameplay is presented primarily from a third-person perspective, with action scenes switching to first person.
