a classic, not super in depth, but a good simple roguelike with a unique and entertaining setting and game loop.

I paid $3.23 for this in 2024, and I have a rule for putting in an hour of gameplay per dollar. I'm glad I didn't spend $15, because this isn't really a $15 game. Definitely a $10 game. Part of it is due to the roguelike element, part of it is due to the combat sequences (I just can't seem to enjoy a game with a random dice roll). BUT it is a fun game, especially if you get it on sale.

I played this on vacation without knowing much about it but it was such a vibe. Lovely game, I enjoyed it lots.
Not recommended Jul 28, 2026
lack of directions, no clear interaction guide, very disappointing, only get this game if its free, i regret the money spent even if it was on sale.

The Curious Expedition may have one of the best loops I can ask for in an indie game. You start in a biome and make your way from this tile to the next looking for the "golden pyramid" that you must discover in order to proceed to the biome. Piss off the natives? You can do that. Hunt all the game? You can do that. DESTROY the biome by spreading a blood plague that spawns spiders? You can do that. Unleashing a calamity behind while you continue your search for the next big treasure? You. Can. Do. That. The combat consists of rolling dice and has a sort of gamble mechanic in play. It really does tell a great tale on each playthrough. Hell I may very well boot it up after I finish this review! Get yourself some adventure and pick this gem up. 10/10
