Evaluation

Escape from the Cursed Convent launched on January 21, 2025 as a free-to-play narrative adventure game. Following launch, the developer provided steady bug fix support and shipped a notable Story Mode update on February 22, 2025, adding an accessibility-focused difficulty option and quality-of-life improvements. On January 22, 2026 — the game's one-year anniversary — the developer published an explicit 2026 update plan committing to Russian and Spanish localization as well as continued bug fixes and optimizations. This is the most recent official communication from the developer and directly confirms that additional work on the game is still planned. The developer also noted they are working on a separate new project (a Victorian-era game), but stated they "remain committed to maintaining and improving" Escape from the Cursed Convent alongside that effort. As of today (October 8, 2026), the announced Russian and Spanish localization has not been confirmed as shipped in any subsequent news post. The 2026 update plan remains the standing commitment, and there has been no developer statement declaring the plan complete or the game finished. The localization work is still outstanding.
