The Curse of the Howling Woods

Adventure, Indie Raguthra Studios March 4, 2025

Briefing

You signed up for a simple job – pull some weeds, make a little cash. Instead, you got bitten by a werewolf, tricked by an old woman, and thrown into a maze of crypts, curses, and questionable life choices.

Now you have two hours to undo your fate before you sprout fur and start howling at the moon.

The Curse of the Howling Woods is a 2D adventure game that blends classic horror tropes, witty dialogue, and cozy but chaotic gameplay. Navigate haunted woods, solve puzzles, dodge traps, and try not to get mugged by a pumpkin.

Features

Cozy Combat – Enemies? One hit and they’re gone. You? Well… hopefully, you’re lucky.

A Maze of Mayhem – Crypts, quicksand, rolling boulders—this forest wants you to fail.

A Cast of Oddballs – Befriend (or avoid) scam-artist Eudora, overly dramatic ghosts, and Tim the werewolf, who insists it was just business.

Survive the night, break the curse, and maybe – just maybe – get paid for your trouble.
