    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally praised for its engaging and mysterious elements, complemented by a haunting opening lullaby and a fast-paced narrative that unfolds as players progress. However, some reviewers noted inconsistencies, such as a silly in-story aftereffect that disrupts the otherwise sinister tone, and a bonus chapter that diverges in atmosphere and design, which may not appeal to all players. Overall, while the visuals and gameplay elements are well-received, the story's execution has mixed reviews.

    • “Beautiful game and an interesting story!”
    • “The story develops at a cracking pace and you discover pieces of the story as you play along.”
    • “There was an in-story aftereffect that was silly, without basis or explanation and at odds with the sinister tone of the tale, which broke the immersion and ruined the story for me.”
    • “The visuals, audials, and mini-puzzles are amazing, but the story and repetitive adventure play and hidden object scenes are not.”
    • “I have to add though that the bonus chapter is rather different in both story atmosphere and game design, so it may not sit well with everyone.”

  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of Cursery is characterized by its fragmented structure, which is considered a less significant aspect due to the limited variety of scenes. However, it excels in other areas, featuring straightforward adventure mechanics that lead to a rich array of engaging conventional puzzles.

    • “It makes up abundantly in every other area, starting from the straightforward adventure game mechanics, which in turn serve as gateways to the plethora of wonderful conventional puzzles.”
    • “Technically, Cursery is a fragmented object game, but this is probably the most downplayed aspect of its gameplay, with only a handful of low-variety scenes.”
