Curious Expedition 2 is a turn-based roguelike in which you have to lead expeditions on mysterious islands during the 19th century and face various dangers. You will need to manage your resources carefully to achieve all your objectives.

Over the years, the roguelike genre has developed, and many games with different universes have been released. This is the case with Curious Expedition 2, a game developed by Maschinen-Mensch and available on Steam for $4.99 instead of $19.99 until February 14, 2026, according to SteamDB.

Set in a reimagined 19th century where mysterious islands appear and disappear from the oceans, expeditions are conducted to discover treasures and bring them back for the 1889 Paris Exposition. Each expedition is unique and will allow you to discover new biomes, as well as new cultures, characters, and different species.

But you will have to take care of your crew, as there will be many dangers. Managing your resources will also be necessary to preserve your crew's mental health. In addition, the environment and the relationships between each character can have a positive or negative impact.
