Thank you very much, Flixster for the review of the adventure I'm glad that you liked my quest The Enchanted Circle. I wanted to integrate it with the plot of the main quest, because the main quest did not answer an important question: What Yennefer was doing in the village? At the same time this was my sort of farewell to modding for The Witcher (later I only helped with The Crossroads and published the improved version of Entrapped), it was my last Witcher quest so I wanted to make it special and worth playing


I made most of the cutscenes, but the best ones were created by Adam "Adrael" Wiśniowski: the opening cutscene, the kikimore queen, the noonwraiths and the showdown in the ruins.


I was responsible for the implementation of the main quest and some game mechanics such as balance, so the challenge was my idea, and I was criticized a bit for it by some players. If anyone finds the adventure too difficult I recommend getting some useful tips on combat by reading my guide to monsters and side quests available in the download section of the adventure on Moddb.


You can have a look at the first post to read the names of the people responsible for the quests. Also, you can check the folder The Witcher/Data/z_zmilosci; there you can find a txt file "Credits" and, if you have Bik Player, you can play the file cursenloven.bik to see the closing credits and listen to nice music by Grensir.


Thanks. The idea was suggested by Wojciech "Dorwall" and I implemented it in the adventure.


Thanks a lot for the review and gallery
Ah, those years devoted to making this adventure were not wasted
On behalf of the whole team I thank you for your appreciation of the adventure!


The cutscene was created by Adrael. The interesting thing about it is that it is the first version of the scene. I liked it a lot, but it didn't appear in the final version of the adventure, you can find a shorter, more dynamic second version with a different music in the quest The Dealer's Dad. We had several problems with implementing the first version due to lighting and grass. If the player had the grass switched on, the sun reflexes in the rye and the height of the rye made it difficult to see what was going on. So I told Adrael to make a different version set in a different part of the fields. But I liked the first version so much that I decided to add music by Grensir to it and put the cutscene on YouTube.
Have fun with the adventure.

It was my special addition to And a Curse..., my last quest for The Witcher 1, so I wanted it to be of decent quality, it's like a small adventure within a big adventure
It's really heartwarming to see such a comment like yours, so thanks a lot

A treasure in And a Curse, and Love, and Betrayal is to be found in the quest The Enchanted Circle, it is somewhere in the fields and you can't get hold of it easily, but it is visible from the very beginning.
A secret in The Crossroads is connected with finding:
describes the location of a hidden treasure, though it's not a very detailed description.
I don't want to spoil what you can find, though it's definitely worth a bit of effort. So my little tip is: after finding the look somewhere near the

Thank you for a detailed review. I think this is one of the best adventures for The Witcher 1 (btw, I also highly value Corylea's adventures and Dan's Wraiths of Quiet Hamlet I'd like to congratulate the Ifrit team for their excellent work: great music, interesting quests, characters and atmosphere, and superb artwork. I was hesitant at first when asked for help with finishing the adventure because there was a number of issues and game breaking bugs and I wanted just to polish some Polish dialogues and remove some typos, but when I saw the plot, the art, the locations, well, how could I say no?
Thanks to the quality of the adventure the tedious work -- connected with making quests playable till the end and removing bugs -- was very, very rewarding. Thanks to all the Djinni artists and translators for their work, too You can find all the names of the creators when you open the folder Public Documents/The Witcher/The Crossroads, plus you can find the great soundtrack there.
I'm glad I could help with finishing this adventure. By the way, did anyone find a hidden secret in the village?

It was Groupees bundle. Oddworld was bundled as a DRM-free game, plus you could get a Steam key, unfortunately no GOG key. But the good thing is some bundles have recently started adding GOG keys too -- e.g. IGS bundles -- and Groupees I think are going to do that too.
