Genre: Shoot-'em-Up

















Release Date RRP Code

Curse (カース) is a 1989 Sega Mega Drive shoot-'em-up by Micronet released exclusively in Japan. You play as a ship that has to save an alien planet from destruction caused by a neighboring planet that had mysteriously changed from friend to enemy over the course of centuries.

Gameplay

The game plays like a standard shoot-'em-up: A shoots a special attack and B shoots a regular shot, with power-ups left by defeated enemies. One powerup is a subship which can either fire ahead of you, behind you, above you, or below you; use C to change its direction.

A+ START  on the title screen opens the Options menu.

Curse is one of the few Sega Mega Drive titles that doesn't run at 60FPS but rather a lower frame rate.
