Evaluation

This Curse Is Metal as Hell! launched on November 4, 2024 as a self-contained first-person horror comedy game. The store page explicitly describes it as a roughly 1–1.5 hour experience with a single ending, signaling it was designed and shipped as a complete, standalone product. There are no DLC listings, no announced expansions, and no roadmap of any kind. All post-launch activity has consisted of bug fixes and a language support addition (English and Traditional/Simplified Chinese were added on February 23, 2025), with no developer communications hinting at additional content. The last developer post was on February 23, 2025, and nothing since then has indicated plans for further updates beyond routine maintenance. The game launched complete and has been fully finished since its release date.

About this game

This Curse Is Metal as Hell! | Kusodeka Bayashi is a first-person horror comedy game where you take on the role of a young child who must confront the horrific entity assaulting his grandparents’ countryside residence.

Story

You’ve gone to stay at your grandma and grandpa’s house on the countryside so your mom can give birth to her baby in peace. Surrounded by such beautiful nature, Sodehiki Village is the perfect place to take a load off and relax... Or at least it was supposed to be.

An overwhelmingly menacing aura awaits you upon your arrival. Eerie statues line the town. Burly men dressed from head to toe in leather absolutely ruin the village’s quaint and charming atmosphere. And to top it all off, there’s a local faith in an evil god that has some deep connection with your family...

“Oh man! A family curse? An evil mountain god? Give me a frickin’ break!”

Will you ever be able to get to that slow-paced lifestyle you’ve been looking forward to in this quaint country village?!
