User Reviews

Runic Curse is a well-designed Soulslike Metroidvania Android game praised for its engaging combat, enemy variety, and unique art style. Players appreciate exploration elements and depth in customization. Common issues include clunky touch controls, limited gamepad support, occasional audio bugs, and challenging difficulty spikes that can frustrate progression. Additionally, some users find the English localization poor and want better explanations of gameplay mechanics. Despite these faults, the game offers a rewarding experience, especially for fans of the genre, at an affordable price.

Pros

Engaging combat system with enemy and boss variety that provides a challenging and rewarding experience.
Unique and charming art style with well-crafted animations that enhance the game's aesthetic appeal.
Strong Metroidvania elements including exploration, map design, and backtracking that keep the gameplay interesting.
Wide variety of weapons, runes, and spells that add depth to character customization and combat.
Overall enjoyable gameplay experience that resonates well with fans of Soulslike and Metroidvania genres, especially given the low price point.

Cons

Controls are often described as clunky or awkward, especially on mobile with small buttons and imprecise touch input; gamepad support is limited and lacks remapping and menu navigation.
Audio bugs such as sound disappearing after pausing or switching apps, requiring app restart to restore audio.
Difficulty level is punishing with steep grind and occasional frustrating mechanics around progression, including loss of items leading to inaccessible areas and unclear requirements for 100% completion.
Poor English localization and translation make the story and character dialogue confusing at times.
Lack of clear explanations or tutorials for game mechanics such as weapon shards and rune system, leading to potential confusion.

Recent reviews

The buttons are way to small. I try to dodge, but my finger a slightly off, and my I do nothing. Also, you can't heal in combat, which is a huge problem. The combat system is good, enemies and bosses have a good number of actions they can use when fighting you, which I definitely didn't suspect. So, my backbone improved my performance, but spells do not work with it. Please fix that, and the game will be five stars.

Just finished my first playthrough. I'd give it a 5 but if you want to gather all the gear before you ng+ then it becomes a bit confusing where some things are. The map will say 100% but it only relates to the fact that you have found all the rooms. It doesn't track treasure and gear in any way besides the list they show up on. Other than that it's honestly a pretty good game.
