About the Game

Curse of Argentum

A Single-player retro survival horror game with a focus on exploration and resource management.

With a retro fixed-camera perspective, you must carefully navigate puzzles, traps and enemies in order to succeed. Resources are scarce, so manage what you can find, and be sure to carefully read into whatever you find laying around.

Gameplay Features

  • Explore an immersive interconnected building with non-linear elements. Consult maps and items to forge a path ahead.

  • Use item descriptions and environmental observation to solve puzzles.

  • Conserve resources to maintain your health and mana, preparing for the dangers that lay in wait.

  • Fight using magical spells powered by the mysterious Argentum. Convert collected items into usable power with the power of Alchemy.

  • Secret rooms and items await the investigative player with a keen eye.

Story

In the game you play as the Merchant, a mysterious tradesman in rare goods and magical artifacts.  Upon entering the grounds of his next destination, a cliffside manse, he finds himself trapped. The only way out is to investigate the seemingly derelict building.
