Low Price Cursed Mountain


While the reviews I read before purchasing this game made me want it, now that I have played if for a while, I really have to say it is no fun at all.
I appreciate the cultural information about the thangkas and the main character's sensitivity to the plight of the missing village people. I loved the fact that the character can get his mojo back by doing purification rituals and goes to the trouble of performing compassion rituals for vanquished ghosts, but it's still not fun.
I have had a seriously difficult time of trying to get the controls to do what the instruction book says they should in fighting the ghosts, and this is a good part of my frustration. The on screen cursor disappears at important moments when I am fighting the ghosts, and leaves me dead on a regular basis.
As you can imagine, this is no fun.
In all honesty, I'm not big on creep, so maybe this wasn't the game for me in the first place. The actions are repetitive; walk around looking at and picking things up things, fighting ghosts and finding yourself dead....., again.
I can play LEGO Indiana Jones and Star Wars for hours, but can only take this depressing game for about twenty minutes at a time.
I would ask the creators of this game to come up with better control interfacing. And if I could get my money back, I'd be happy.
Best of luck to the rest of you gamester. I hope you do better than I did.Get more detail about Cursed Mountain.
