Cursed to Golf is a golf-like adventure where every shot counts. Players are tasked with making it out of Golf Purgatory to become a Golfing Legend. With insane hazards, magical power-ups, and tons of replayability, will you make it back alive, or will you forever be… Cursed to Golf!?
This weekend, delve into the challenges and subtleties of this new way of playing golf. Cursed to Golf takes you on a virtual trip to the afterlife, now available to play on PS4 and PS5!
If you’re still not sure if this game is for you, Liam Edwards, Cursed to Golf Game Director at Chuhai Labs shared some exciting details of the challenges awaiting us in Golf Purgatory:
Who’s the Boss?
At the end of each biome lies its ultimate challenge – the Legendary Caddie that oversees that part of the course. So in Purgatory, you’ll find The Scotsman; in the Desert, you’ll face The Explorer, and the Caves are home to The Forgotten. These golf battles mix up the gameplay slightly and offer up a few differences from the traditional purgatorial golf gameplay you’ll encounter on the rest of the course.
Beating The Scotsman will unlock the “Comeback” boon, giving you the chance to place a checkpoint flag once per run. Then, upon your (almost certain) death, you'll be transported back to your flag instead of being booted back to the beginning of the course. Not only that, but you’ll have all the Ace Cards and cash you had when you placed it initially ready for another swing at the course!
Hole-in-one or two?
The Explorer’s hole is a sand dune-filled nightmare; expect to perfect your wedge game over there because you’ll constantly be landing in the bunker. On top of that, The Explorer has a unique ability – she can alter the hole right in the middle of it being played.
The Forgotten’s Hole is a deep, cavernous maze full of diverging paths, deviously placed hazards, and tricksy false flagpoles that house golf ball-eating dinosaurs. You’ll not only be contending with The Forgotten but also her two pet birds, Eagle and Albatross. These feathery blighters will stop at nothing to ensure The Forgotten beats you. If you land in one of their zones, they’ll whisk your ball away into a hazard, losing you shots and putting you in tough spots for your next swing.
See you in Hell
A course chock full of randomized dungeon-like holes, sneaky death traps, challenging bosses, and wicked curses; jeez, does Golf Purgatory ever throw a lot at you? If you make it past all that to the 16th hole, you’ll be in HELL. Prepare for the ultimate challenge here. I won’t spoil what awaits you in Hell, but it lives up to its namesake. Prepare to use all your golfing skills, Ace Card abilities, and boons to survive Golf Purgatory’s last bastion before ascension. No golfer has ever managed to make it past here before. Will you be the first?
