Cursed Mountian shines through because it does everything right that most games do wrong, with amazing story and setting

User Rating: 8.5 | Cursed Mountain WII
cursed mountian looks like a low budget game, with no real reason to shine, and while it doesn't have the production values of a modern title, it is an excellent game.It isn't revolutionary however. There are games that have done this kind of combat, setting or storytelling better, but none blend it as well as this one.

This game has setting and story in the bag, while not exatly pretty, it gives the locals a great atmosphere. The setting is something alien to the north american gamer, and it manages to evoke an almost "silent hill" feeling in being absolutly and totally alone. This game does not toss you a despicable love interest, or idiot sidekicks. It's just a good, well written story about one man deciding to find his brother in a hililayan mountian, dead or alive.

The combat is decidely ok. Bit of a stripped down resident evil 4 clone, and finishes are difficult as hell due to wii motion controls not working in the slightest. But aside from this minor problem, its a great game to be had.
