Curse of the Dead Gods just received its second free update today, dubbed The Serpent’s Catacombs. The latest expansion sends players into the depths of a labyrinthine temple where they will find hordes of cursed deities. Developer Passtech Games also released a trailer to show off the new content.
The quest for godhood continues, and hidden traps and new enemies will try to stop you. Prepare to be cursed and killed in new ways as you delve deeper into the dark temple. Players can return to life should they die, but you should really watch out for gameplay-changing curses.
