The Curse Of Something
Yo! Welcome to The Curse of Something!
A very special text-adventure/rpg game about large furry men and 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 0.24 is now out! Check out these changes:
- The scene where the Cobra feeds you cupcakes is finished
- The Cobra’s cupcakes are cursed! If you eat too many it will make it harder to ever lose weight again. You’ll gain weight each night, calories will count for more, and on top of that you’ll start finding mysterious and irresistible cupcakes everywhere. Eating more of these cakes can increase the effects of the curse. You can talk to the Cobra at the Underpass to get the curse removed but you’ll have to avoid eating cupcakes for the next few days otherwise his curse removing ritual might not work.
- When starting a new run there's a chance you can encounter a special event - You might start with the Cobra's box of cupcakes, you might start with items from the temple, You might be able to transform into a Dragon or Werewolf or become possessed by the Ghost, or in VIP+ versions you might start with a fully upgraded Blue Rewards Card. Each of these events have to be unlocked in previous runs in order for you to encounter them (They are unlocked by encountering them normally, for example the starting event where you can transform into a werewolf is unlocked by getting the scene with the Giant Werewolf at the Unholy Hollows).
- More flavour text when visiting the Underpass
- You can press the red buttons on the Debt Robot’s head-handles. It makes him go “Brrr!”
- Lil Koby’s Adventure: In the ‘Stay And Use Your Magic’ route, there’s a new scene when being enthralled by the Green Dragon for the second time
- Curse Protection has a sidebar icon
- Player stat changes in the side bar show green/red numbers to indicate the amount gained/lost
- Like the ‘Fat Ending’ pictures, there will be ‘Muscle Ending’ pictures. You get these if you’re defeated by a bigger, super-muscular enemy. For now only the Alligator Pirate, Kobold Mage, and Smug Kangaroo have a Muscle Ending picture.
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! The Patreon versions have more sets of the "Muscle Ending" pictures!

Entonces seguiré esperando pAra que salga una versión en español y también aprovecho me uno al discord
Is getting the ghost atlas something chance related or do I need to follow certain steps, completely lost on how to get it as I got it kinda randomly in my run
You get it when visiting the temple late in the day
Esto se merece una versión en español está muy entretenido
Thank you. Unfortunately an official translation isn't really possible though
Oigan yo de nuevo… es que no entiendo la conversación con el pirata caiman, osea, cuando respondes todo bien te dice "nos volveremos a ver" y de ahí no entiendo, esa si hay más o es solo una frase?
If you answer 3 questions correctly in a battle, you can find him at the pier. You'll need the stuffed animal from the store in order to get all the right answers
Dear MCRugerMasta, can you please add guide walkthrough because I have no idea what I'm going to do next
I'm excited to see what is going to be added in the future. I mean more so what you have on your to-do list/outline for the next update with the treasure dragon. Of course... That is 2 months away for me. I hope you don't burn yourself out working on this.
Don't worry, I'll be okay!
I have sponsored 7.5💲for a month and linked the account. After clicking on the game, it still shows that I have no permission. This is why the author
???
I have an idea for a new weapon.
That's for the sequel
O_O
请问如何到达游戏的结局？我已经玩了两天了。我想要游戏结局的教程以及如何获得月亮神器。
You get the moon artifact by going to the temple early in the morning
ok so with the cupcakes. If you become massive enough at maximum curse you will be in a loop of eating them for a very long time due to being unable to meet conditions in battle
I'm just realized that there are no guide for this so I have to do it on my own
我很喜欢这个游戏，但是中国不能用资金来赞助你。希望将来能开辟更多的赞助渠道。
Hm, I don't think I'll be opening up other payment methods unfortunately - at least for giving out paid versions of the game. Patreon connects to itch.io to let people access the other versions and it's not really feasible to do it another way, as far as I know. I have a Ko-Fi page, but I think if you can't pay through Patreon then I don't think that's going to be much better: https://ko-fi.com/mcrugermasta
How will the green and red cards work when they're implemented into v0.25? Since it sounds like they would be a better version of the fat and muscle trader without having to worry about points. Even if you can only sell that's still much better. If it is a permanent item that would make it much more reliable in some cases.
They're a one time use
You know, I think I would like a Honey Bee character in the future that can produce honey. While you also have the ability to become one and produce your own honey as well to either store, eat, or sell.
Even possibly giving your character a sting attack that can have unique effects on the opponent making them horny or something.
If I had the funds I would definitely provide for this game. Unfortunately, I am broke.
How am I going to see the character that literally we are playing as? Why aren't you put a picture of the character that literally we are playing as?
P.S: I'm not talking about the mirror
P.S 2: Can you add more characters in the future because there aren't any characters that I like
There are too many possible ways for your player character to look like so it's not possible to have pictures for them all.
Ok but can you add more characters in the future?
There likely will be more characters. There are like... 15 if I can recall them off the top of my head already though. So it's surprising that at least not one of them is to your tastes. Though understandable since most of them are lizards.
The Komodo Jock
The Kobold
The Komodo Rogue
The Werewolf
The Turtle
The Ghost (Incrementum (?))
The Crow
Mitch the Seagull
Alexander the Lion
The Fox
The Dragon (Ben Blue(?))
The T-Rex Knight
The Slug (Curse of Competition)
The Robot (Curse of Debt)
The Naga
The T-Rex Admiral
The Rhino
I'm kinda like Fox actually
Fair enough, though it makes sense since the fox is one of the last characters in the game and there's not too much going on. So understandably I could see you wanting more out of him.
At least he isn't like the Rhino who hasn't been updated since he was implemented.
I need the temple of pure light to get more rewards. What do you think about making it possible for you to obtain that box that the priest has?
What would it do?
I would give the function of "eliminate" to the evil ghost, making it disappear for a while, and also (if you have the Disciple's Carcanet and combine it with the box I mentioned) to "purify" the enemies, causing them to reset to their normal state.
Can there be updates involving being bigger than cities/the planet? I do prefer just being bigger than big.
Yeah, I'll have to do more stuff like that eventually
And make it a "Curse of Evergrowing"
A question, how do I activate the 'spook' mode? I found it in the files and I'm wondering how to access it in the game.
I found this image:
It's for an event that only happens in October or in the Patreon versions of the game
OK, thanks
ya complete el juego..... creo.... ya tengo 9999999/999999HP, que mas tengo que hacer??????
EDIT:By the way, I need the character you choose, whether it's a lion or another animal, to appear in the mirror image. I'm tired of seeing the same PNG of the dark dragon you placed.
OK?
The mirror images are for the enemy sets that I sometimes take commissions for. I'm not really sure if I'll ever add any generic pictures for it
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...........................
What is the main character like?
In what way? You can set stuff about the main character at the start, otherwise check the mirror
well, there is some characterization out of player's control, like how Dude is a square with no appreciation for the Alligator Pirate's poetry,,,
i love the game and how it has gotten but there still stuff that i havent figuered out mostly the dragon transformation and the bat and shark love scenes
Have you given the wolf the moon artifact and gotten his business card? If you want the dragon transformation you need that plus you need the kobold's phone number (you can his number from any sex scene with him)
Le vendrían bien más imágenes de músculo al hombre lobo, incluso un "final musculoso", ya se que es grande ya pero más grande no estaría mal 🥺
CIERTO
Y agregaran más interacciones con personajes como el hombre lobo, el tiburón, el tipo de los hongos y así? Es que si me quedé con ganas de que haya más que hacer con ellos (en especial el hombro lobo)
They'll get more stuff at some point. Not sure when though, but at least in the next couple of updates they'll get their 'muscle ending' pictures
has intentado hacer esto?:
How do you usually come up with ideas for different encounters in the game? I like the more in depth ones that have different stages. Surprisingly, the cursed cartridge being the main one. Something that builds up over time.
Hm, I guess it's usually that I get ideas when I'm going for a walk and I come back home and write them down
when could females be added to the game, be it an option to make certain NPCs female instead or maybe play as one ourself?
Probably not going to happen, sorry!
MC is gay, I don't know what you expected as a reply.
Haha, well they don't know that. I could be bi. I think it's an okay question, I just unfortunately have to say no when people ask
it was just a harmless question that I didn't deserve to be downvoted to hell for!
my sibling in Baphomet five downvotes is not "to hell"
it's still unwarranted over a simple question that doesn't really hurt anyone
Alguien me podría decir cómo encontrar o comprar una poción de xp? Es que no se inglés y no veo nada con su nombre :(
If you Explore you can find Winner's - they can be bought there by talking to the owner
Hey hey! Im a bit confused on how to get the magic shop? Could you help me out? Thanks!
If you beat the enemies in the forest, you'll find a new area outside the castle. After that, you'll get a message on the computer that will unlock the magic shop (you'll find it at the junkyard)
Thanks‼️
I have said this before but I'll say it again since I can't get it out of my head. I want another game within this game, much like LKA, of several of the characters doing a ttrpg with the Kobold using a spell to emulate a dungeon master. With slight variations if using the curse of debt or competition.
On a side note...
That seems kinda hard because I'm realizing that drawing the characters at different sizes while they're in the same room would be hard unless they're given an in universe reason to have a reduced size like the hammer space rings.
I like to think that the reason why there's a sperm shortage is because all the men are gay in this world or are hard submissives. Though I'd think the women are just as gay due to having nobody but themselves. So the sperm shortage is just to make sure there can be more of the populace.
Haven't played in a while, came back to some good updates, but I'm curious, how do you get the cobra sex scene and Cobra cupcakes?
If you go to the Magic Shop, there's a love spell that you can get and if you try to use it on the cobra you will get the scene with him and you can also get the cupcakes in this scene
how many cupcakes do you gotta eat for the curse to kick in?
If you've eaten any of the cupcakes, you can talk to the Cobra in battle to start a scene that makes the curse kick in. If you eat more cupcakes after that, then the effects of the curse increase. The amount you need to eat to get to the next stage of the curse increases with each stage but it's between 10 and 30
hey so uh i like the new update but how do i get the cupcakes?
Use the love spell on the Cobra to get a scene with him, and he'll give you cupcakes at the end of it
How big do I need to get the enemies in order to unlock the 'muscle-ending' pictures?
They need to have a Muscle stat that is higher than 800 and also higher than yours, while also having a bodyfat percent less than 30. Then they need to defeat you by battle
I kinda want the ability to wear a chastity cage when committing to the temple further. Essentially giving the player a higher maximum for the arousal bar.
My only complaint is the fact that filling up your stomach now takes forever. There should be a stuff yourself with cupcakes option rather than having to spam the button.
Other than that? Fantastic update!
Thanks! I'll have to look into changing that
Funnily enough having Max curse also makes it so during fights you have to eat cupcakes.
Oooooh! Let's go! I cannot wait to try this out! I'm going to try getting the cupcake curse with the curse of manliness.
Awesome update McKruger! I love it! I have a question: How do I get the debt robot to say "grr"? I can't find the red buttons on his head. xD
Thank you! And to press the red buttons, just try checking on him at home multiple times
Thanks! I recognized the mistake, I had downloaded the previous version, hahaha! It's very good!!
Alright, this cursed cupcakes stuff hits a lot of good buttons. very good.
Thank you 😊
So the next update is coming out soon! I'm going to have so much fun with the cupcakes! I cannot wait to see how hilarious it gets!
Fr when? :D i just wana know!
Sometime this week. Since usually the updates are released the first week of every month.
Hello very fun game but there is a problem with downloading it, every time it downloads, it says forbidden, which is pretty annoying, i tried using incognito, other browsers, etc, but still it doesn't work, any suggestions for me to download it thank you
Maybe try downloading it on a different device?
What kind of service?
alsoo thanks for the advice
Just maybe a phone rather than a computer. At least that's one way I assume.
It worked! Thank youu!
