Curator Notes

The Bridge Curse: Road to Salvation is Softstar Entertainment’s first-person horror game built on the Taiwanese urban legend of the ghost bride of a university bridge, the same legend behind the 2020 film The Bridge Curse. Players move between a group of students who disturb the bridge during a dare. It released on PC on August 24, 2022, and on the Nintendo Switch eShop on August 30, 2023. eastasiasoft issued the Switch physical edition as its Limited Edition #37 on November 3, 2023, in a run of 2,000 copies. This filing opens The Bridge Curse lineage on the shelf.

Preservation Notes

Access Hardware: Nintendo Switch; compatible Nintendo Switch family hardware
Original Hardware: Nintendo Switch
Playback Compatibility: Nintendo Switch software is region-free. The retained game card is the primary access copy and runs on any Nintendo Switch console.
Preservation Concerns: Game cards are flash media; long-term charge retention, contact wear, and loss of the small card from its case are the principal risks. Any content delivered as an eShop download or update depends on Nintendo’s servers and is not preserved by the card alone.
Edition History: PC release August 24, 2022; Nintendo Switch eShop release August 30, 2023. eastasiasoft’s physical Switch edition (#37) followed on November 3, 2023.
Access Status: eastasiasoft’s physical edition was a limited production and now circulates through the secondary market. The digital Switch edition was issued separately on the Nintendo eShop.
