Many years ago, Ixona, a Gypsy witch, stole a chicken from the player's ancestor, who chopped off her hand as punishment.
Character development: Improving your skills and gaining new perks Challenging combats: distance, stealth, or melee New music, Voice overs and Sound effects High resolution support and fully animated characters 3D environments, characters, weapons and items When you complete an exhibit, you will be transported back into your Uncle Boris’ wax museum ready for your next adventure. This is a true gory horror game, which has no mercy and it follows classic horror movies style from the 80s.īe warned that once you enter an exhibit, the only way out is to solve the puzzle, win a terrible battle, or die a horrible death. This is not an easy task and you will have to fight with vicious creatures and mutants, who will be more than happy to rip you apart. Explore the intricate passages, alleys, and tunnels that make up the Waxworks –conquer four levels of Pharaoh, Jack the Ripper, Mines and Dracula to be able to catch the Witch and kill her. The ghastly exhibits inside hold the key to your fate. Try to ignore the gnawing fear in your gut, the feeling of impending disaster that threatens to overwhelm you. Waxworks: Curse of the Ancestors is a 2021 survival horror game that dares you to take the ultimate quest and discover the secret of the Waxworks and lift the curse of Ixona that plagues your family. To this end, you must travel to several points in time and take on the role of an ancestor hunting down his evil twin brother in each museum exhibit. Just like Elvira, this game was a pixel-art point&click classic in which you must save your family from an ancient curse. If you are a horror fan, I think you will enjoy this game and if you are just looking for something to play for this month, it will be a nice experience.Waxworks was released in 1992 by Horrorsoft, that already brought us the game like Elvira: Mistress of the Dark and Elvira II: The Jaws of Cerberus. Overall, Curse of the Ancestors is a promising game that still has way to go, but it’s made with respect and care for the original game considering current times but being a remake of a 30 year old game it gets a little under the radar. Something I hope they fix before the final release. The worst point this remake has in my opinion, is the RPG like system they go with equipment, levelling up in a horror game is not something that can’t be done but Curse of the Ancestors does it bad and awkward. Both things that this remake does not have. This is the best thing about this new version, 1992 game is not for amateur audience it’s a game that requires a LOT of patience and it’s level design is something that makes the game unnecessarily harder and makes me rage.
Though like said earlier the atmosphere and gameplay is a lot more enjoyable and fitting for the genre as well as for modern audience. Nothing is perfect though, the game is fairly easy up to this point, and the gore I talked about earlier is less graphic than it’s original version, as well as not having any death screens that made the original stand. The game is it’s own apart from the story, instead of a Point&Click dungeon crawler now is a first person horror game focused on survival and combat either than puzzle solving.Ītmosphere feels great on the levels that are currently available and the monsters look good and gnarly. So the game is not complete and a lot of bugs are present.

It is worth considering at the time of writing this, the game is available on early access on Steam, devs say it’s 70% complete and planned to go full release this Christmas. The curse revivesĬurse of the Ancestors is a remake of this game. The only way to destroy the curse and save your brother is to go back in time through the exhibitions and kill the evil twins along history. Our protagonist is the good twin and has just inherit a waxworks museum from his late uncle. Every time the family gave birth twins one would become pure evil. Like many old games, Waxworks follows a simple plot: A long time ago a family was cursed by a witch. A Dungeon Crawler filled with puzzles and gnarly death scenes filled with gore, even if you watch them by today standards they look cool. Waxworks is actually a 1992 game for Amiga, and I really recommend it if you like gore or just to be grossed out (and a lot of patience). This sick but enjoyable taste comes from a recommendation I make for you today, Waxworks. The month of horror is here and almost all of us are ready for all the screams, blood and nightmare fuel that entertain us in a sick way sometimes.
