11 itemsAbout the Game
Cursed Cargo is a chaotic, physics-based online co-op comedy-horror game for 1–4 players where teamwork is not optional — it is survival.
You are not moving ordinary freight. Your job is to transport high-maintenance, sentient, and often terrified supernatural entities through unstable, procedurally generated environments and deliver them safely to an Extraction Point. If the cargo breaks before you arrive, the mission fails — and the consequences are permanent.
Core Gameplay
Each mission drops your team into a shifting labyrinth filled with environmental hazards, hostile threats, and unpredictable physics interactions.
One player must physically carry the sentient cargo. This role is asymmetrical and high-risk:
Reduced movement speed
Faster stamina consumption
Cannot use items
Becomes the primary target for threats
The remaining players must scout, defend, clear paths, manage resources, and protect the carrier at all costs.
Every fall, collision, impact, or attack damages the cargo’s physical integrity. If its integrity reaches zero before extraction, the delivery is void.
KEY FEATURES:
Cargo Management and the "Calmness" Mechanic: The cargo you carry is not just a box. It is affected by events around it, it fears, and it reacts. Use the items you find to calm it down and prevent the cargo from "losing its mind."
Advanced Stealth and Escape: Hide from monsters in labyrinthine rooms. A new threat awaits around every corner...
Ever-Changing Maps: Experience infinite replayability with procedural level generation that reshapes the map every time you play, ensuring that danger always lurks in unexpected corners.
