Publisher Mad Mushroom and developer CLYDE Games have announced that their dark fantasy roguelike action game, Cursemark, will launch in Early Access for PC via Steam on June 8, 2026, for $14.99.
A core feature is its rune system, which allows players to modify how abilities function. Runes can be applied to attacks, spells, and defensive skills, significantly changing their effects. The game includes seven schools of magic.
Progression is tied to exploration across a tile-based map, and NPC encounters provide upgrades and new abilities. However, advancing through the map increases the cursemark’s strength, raising enemy difficulty over time and forcing players to balance risk and reward. Lastly, the world itself is designed with minimal guidance.
