The Bridge Curse 2: The Extrication
20 years ago, a university in Taiwan was rocked by the sudden disappearance of a young woman. Now, a group of students filming a horror movie on campus may have accidentally captured footage of paranormal activity in the same building. Your job is to solve the attendant mysteries while not getting turned inside out by angry ghosts.
Bridge Curse 2 is self-consciously an interactive horror movie, with a few points of irritation like never allowing you to skip a single moment of any dialogue. When it does let you play, it’s got a decent assortment of deductive puzzles, weird minigames, and stealth sequences where you have to outwit and evade some truly grotesque monsters.
It likes to spend long stretches of time without letting you do anything, but Bridge Curse 2 is a decent pick if you like some helplessness in your horror. It’s got a nasty edge to it, with some brutal death scenes, the occasional gratuitous gross-out, and a lot of terrible things happening to people who in no way deserved it.
