Our take on Shogun Curse
Its defining structure is a campaign whose route and environment change as camps are chosen in different orders, while relics can either provide ongoing buffs or be consumed for a battle-time power release.
What is Shogun Curse?
Shogun Curse is a strategy game about pursuing revenge against the demons and monsters responsible for a curse.
The campaign takes place across landscapes that change according to the chosen route. Players select which camps to attack and in what order, collect cards and relics, and harvest the souls of defeated enemies. Relics can strengthen the character during the journey or be consumed to release their stored power during difficult encounters. A Soul Scale sets the campaign’s difficulty. Reaching the final boss requires deciding which path to follow, when to take risks, and how to use collected relics. The adventure’s environment adapts to those decisions.
