The Few and Cursed is a deck-building adventure game based on the Comic Series of the same name. It takes place on a post-apocalyptic Earth where most of the water on the planet has been gone for seventy years.
Even though what was left of mankind found a way to adapt using water, the most valuable asset on the planet, as currency, survival turned the world into a wicked wasteland where it’s either kill or be killed. And evil not only endured, it won.
People turned to dark arts, old tales of mischief and curses to survive. Death is everywhere. But for every darkness there is light – and among the few and cursed are those willing to fight to bring balance to the land: the Curse Chasers.
In the game, players take on the role of a "Curse Chaser" looking to make a name for themselves by searching for supernatural artifacts, completing jobs, or bounty hunting. Players traverse the desert of the Pacific Ocean as they improvise and acquire new cards for their deck on their quest for fame or infamy.

I already like many kind of deck building games and this makes me to enjoy to play this. I haven't read the comic yet, but thematically this feels great as well. I have played as solo, and 2 and 4 player competitive games. All of those modes works well, I think best was 4 player game, though the first game was long. Better could be the insert (I had to make insert myself), miniature quality and rulebook. The good thing is that the creator (Mike) replied to most questions in the forum. Overall, I like this game and I would play again when possible.

Very well designed and neat game suffering from some thematic weirdness and minor production issues. Worst of all, the rulebook is really really bad. Very bad idea to try and learn from it. I was taught the game by Mike himself a bit ago at origins, but when it was on KS, I didn't back because of how bad the rulebook was. I talked to Mike and the rulebook was a product of licensor issues, but a new rulebook is coming... soon? Hopefully it comes quick, this is a really neat game, and deserves more people to play it.
