The Curse of Something: A RPG Game About Large Furry Men

Current release: Curse of V0.22.2 (December 3, 2024)

Play The Curse of Something

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.

And you can play for free!

Just come here: https://mcrugermasta.itch.io/the-curse-of-something

Version 0.22.2 is now out! Check out these changes:

  • Even more pictures for when you defeat an enemy by making them fat. (Pictures for the Vampire Bat, Mysterious Rogue, Evil Ghost, Fallen Cleric, Rival, and Robot)
  • You can tell the Komodo Jock to stop using his gloves to prevent him from doing any size changing shenanigans in battle
  • A nerf to the Fallen Cleric: There’s a chance that his charm will last 1 less turn, and trying to Discourage him has a higher chance of working. The length of his silencing spell is decreased and he’ll be less likely to cast it again if he has already used it.
  • After competing in your 2nd food eating contest at the Blue Ben’s Bar and Grille you will receive a Yummy Burger. You can give it to enemies to make them fatter.
  • Stunning the Cobra Warlock will make him drop his gem and lose the stats gained from it. There are new sprites to depict this and his old sprites have been touched up. His previous highest muscle stage has an entirely new sprite

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, during the Cobra sex scene you can take his book and his gem and use his magic against him.

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.

this is alot of quite a nice little text game though you could do some balancing with the forest in the beginning and early game, that place is brutal

Hm, yeah. I’ll probably end up adding some more effective pills/ ways to get more.

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~ :two_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :two_hearts:

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.

Just a thought.

Hm, yeah maybe. That’s interesting, I’ll consider it.

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?

Just spend some more time reading the book and you’ll figure it out :slight_smile:

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.

Oh, haha. Then you can check your messages at the computer

Yeah, I did, that’s the weird e-mail I was talking about :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh, my bad. Um, if you’ve failed a pact at the temple, go back there and use the word from the email when you meditate

Is there anything else to come out of the Cursed Book? I’m trying to understand it as well, haha - got the mantra word though.
