The Curse Upon the Obra Dinn The Obra Dinn, a merchant ship, set sail from London in 1802. It was bound for the Orient with over 200 tons of goods and a crew of 51 men. However, the ship mysteriously disappeared and was presumed lost at sea. It wasn't until five years later that the ship reappeared on the shores of Falmouth, England under strange circumstances. When the ship was discovered, there was no sign of the crew except for a few corpses. The ship was in a state of disarray, with blood-soaked decks and evidence of a struggle.
I’m so happy to be part of the blog tour for beautiful new middle grade adventure The Magic Place! Anything with a magical cat character is going to be a hit in my book, and this story is a really fun and entertaining read – it’s almost what you’d get if you crossed The Twits with A Little Princess, but of course with an added (and wonderful!) feline companion. Tomte was especially keen to get his paws on it, as you can see…
But there were ways it could be managed The mirror, the lens from Aunt Vermilia s spectacles, the circular window in the attic and even the little grey rabbit with the long floppy ears were all devices to contrive that moment. For my stop on the tour, author Chris Wormell has kindly given us a glimpse into his writing process, and, most importantly, an introduction to the friendship between our heroine Clementine and her cat, Gilbert.
The ship was in a state of disarray, with blood-soaked decks and evidence of a struggle. The authorities boarded the ship and discovered a journal belonging to an insurance adjuster named William Davenport. The journal detailed the events that occurred on the ship, as well as the fate of the crew.

According to the journal, the crew members started to exhibit strange and aggressive behavior shortly after setting sail. They would mutter incoherent words and act irrationally. The captain tried to maintain order, but soon the entire crew descended into madness. The journal described how crew members started attacking each other, resulting in casualties. Eventually, only a few crew members were left alive. The cause of this madness was believed to be a curse. The Obra Dinn had stopped at a small island called Nuku Hiva, where the crew came into contact with an idol that was believed to have magical powers. It is believed that the idol cursed the crew and caused the chaotic events that unfolded on the ship. The crew members who survived were either killed by their fellow crew members or died from unexplained causes. The curse upon the Obra Dinn remains a mystery to this day. Some believe it was a supernatural force, while others think it was a result of a hallucinogenic substance or a contagious disease. Whatever the cause, the events that occurred on the ship serve as a chilling reminder of the dangers that lie in the unknown. The Obra Dinn has since become a legend in maritime history. The ship and its cursed crew have captivated the imaginations of many, and the story has been passed down through generations. The mystery of the curse upon the Obra Dinn continues to intrigue and fascinate people, even centuries later..
Reviews for "The Historical Accuracy of The Curse Upon the Obra Dinn"
1. Michael - 2/5 stars - I was really excited to play "The Curse upon the Obra Dinn" after hearing all the hype surrounding it, but I was ultimately disappointed. The unique art style and concept were intriguing, but the gameplay fell flat for me. The puzzles were overly convoluted and difficult to solve, leading to frustration rather than enjoyment. Additionally, the lack of guidance or hints made it frustratingly easy to get stuck and spend too much time on certain parts. Overall, while the game had potential, it didn't deliver an engaging and enjoyable experience for me.
2. Sarah - 1/5 stars - I found "The Curse upon the Obra Dinn" to be incredibly boring and tedious. The monochromatic visuals and repetitive soundtrack became tiresome after a short while. Moreover, the narrative lacked depth and failed to captivate my interest. The game heavily relied on trial and error, which felt more like a chore than a puzzle-solving experience. I ended up quitting halfway through as I couldn't bear to continue playing. Overall, "The Curse upon the Obra Dinn" didn't live up to the hype for me and left me feeling incredibly underwhelmed.
3. Robert - 2/5 stars - I had high hopes for "The Curse upon the Obra Dinn" as a fan of detective games, but I found myself disappointed in the execution. While the concept of identifying the crew members' fates through frozen moments in time was intriguing, the gameplay quickly became repetitive and monotonous. The lack of character development and flat dialogue made it difficult to connect with the story or the individuals on the ship. Additionally, the controls felt clunky and the overall pacing of the game was slow. Unfortunately, I didn't find "The Curse upon the Obra Dinn" to be a satisfying or enjoyable experience.
