Cursed Crew PC Keyboard Controls Guide

by Fernando Diaz / Articles, Game Controls & Hotkeys, Misc. Guides / 22 Feb 2023

Cursed Crew is all about being the captain of a ship on wild seas. It’s your job to give orders, manage resources, keep your crew happy, and battle pirates and monsters. But there’s a twist – you and your crew are cursed to sail forever unless you find a way to break the curse.

As captain, you’re in charge of stocking the ship with supplies and food to maintain morale & health. You’ll also be looting treasure, navigating the seas, and making choices that could lead to fights, riches, or secrets…

Your crew is like your family on the water. They keep the ship tight, whether that’s by steering, fixing things up, fishing, or cooking… And when the action kicks off, they’re your first line of defense, dealing with fires, loading cannons, and squaring off against all kinds of trouble. High morale is key; victories, good sleep and tasty food can keep spirits up, but defeats, losses, and shortages might turn them salty – even to the point of mutiny.

Here’s your go-to guide for all the basic PC controls in Cursed Crew. You can tweak them to fit your style, so have a play around. Stick this page in your bookmarks for a quick peek whenever you need a refresher on the controls.
