Metro 2033's "Cursed" Mission: A Comprehensive Guide
Despite its age, Metro 2033 remains a fan favorite, experiencing a resurgence thanks to Metro Awakening. This guide focuses on the challenging "Cursed" mission, often confusing for players due to unclear objectives and the station's layout. The mission begins after the railcar ride to Turgenevskaya station (Cursed Station in the game).
Locating the Bomb
After reaching the defenders near the barricaded escalators, you'll learn an explosives team went missing while attempting to collapse a tunnel. Your task: find and detonate the bomb. Nosalises will attack relentlessly. If overwhelmed, retreat to the defenders for support. The bomb is located at the far end of the right-hand tunnel. Avoid the ghostly shadows directly ahead; they'll damage you. Retrieve the bomb and either proceed to the adjacent tunnel or retreat if necessary.
Destroying the Tunnel
With the bomb, enter the left-hand tunnel (from the defenders' perspective). A cutscene will trigger, automatically planting and lighting the fuse. Escape immediately; the blast is lethal. Alternatively, a grenade or pipe bomb in the same area will achieve the same result. Note: Nosalises may still enter through other paths.
Destroying the Airlock
To secure the station, destroy the airlock. Take the right-hand stairs to the torchlit area. Ignore the nosalises. Interact with the support columns to plant a pipe bomb. Evacuate immediately after lighting the fuse. With both entrances destroyed, proceed with Khan to the shrine room and the next mission, "Armory."
