Yo! Welcome to The Curse of Something - a very special text-adventure/rpg game about growin’ huge!
Live the life of someone afflicted with a curse that either makes you super fat or ultra buff. You can go out into the woods and fight monsters, or talk to them and try to make friends - or fuck them.
Version 0.22.3 is now out! Check out these changes:
The other half of the Cobra sex scene where you take his book and gem and use them against him
Picture for when you defeat the Cobra Warlock by making them fat.
After knocking the gem out of the Cobra’s hand by stunning him, you can pick it up to use against him.
If the Fallen Cleric gives up on trying to charm you he will also stop using the silencing spell
Nerf to the Sacred Flame item. It will no longer scale to such an absurd degree.
Creatine is sold in a pack of three at the supermarket
Pact failure quest only requires one failure
Thermionic Altar: Place a ring on it to fine-tune its strength. Find it outside the castle
Metal Enchanting Stone: The Muscle/Fat Concealing rings can be made indestructible at the Thermionic Altar. You can find this stone by exploring after finding the altar.
Gravity Ring: A quest reward that reduces the effect that gravity has on you.

The game will be updated every month, and if you’re very nice you can subscribe to my Patreon to get updates a month in advance! In the Patreon versions you can access a new mini-game: Lil Koby’s Adventure - you start as a tiny kobold who lives amongst several larger dragon men who all have the ability to enthrall you for a number of days depending on the size difference between you and them. You have magic that makes you larger day by day so eventually you’ll be big enough to turn the tables on them.
I gotz to big for the apartment, and had to go live in da woods.
Though in seriousness, I feel like the height pills being only one inch and you don’t get anymore once you run out is kind of a pain tbh. I get Big but I don’t want to be super big.
True. The forest is pretty brutal in the beginning, but instead of making the enemies easier, I would rather make it a bit quicker to grow when you’re just starting out.
Pretty fun game so far, really looking forward to future updates for it! I guess it’s kind of early for me to have a definitive impression on it so far, but I definitely enjoy that it’s fairly possible to see much of the content right away without having to grind for hours on end.
I’d say my favorite thing so far though is the growth mechanic with the Forest Knight, which I only found out because he was too precious to beat up when I first encountered him~
You have something great here and hoping for it to grow bigger. Is the alligator pirate the only one who can grow fatter? Do you have plans to do more weight gain for enemies or for them to cause the player to gain?
If you found the Vampire Bat, he’s another enemy that can grow fatter. Also next month, in the Patreon version I’ll be releasing the Cobra Warlock and he’s focused on making the player fatter.
Why isn’t the option to run away available when you enter the fight? You could make it even more interesting if there is a random chance your foe catches you and makes you pay by enhancing or decreasing the curse’s effect based upon which kind of curse it is.
Love this game. I maaaaay have stayed up until 2 AM playing it last night because my dumbass character was on A Roll.
One thing I’m wondering, though - I’m having trouble figuring out what to do with the book after reading it. The instructions seem to imply something to do with the dick curse guy; do I have to activate his orbs?
I spent a good while reading it, to the point where I got the “something happened” message and the weird e-mail, but I can’t figure out where to go from there.
