Cursed Empire is a fantasy role-playing game set in the world of Thargos, created by Chris Loizou. It is now in its second edition, having changed its name from Crimson Empire due to a trademark dispute with Lucasfilm.

The game's setting is distinctly dark and is influenced not only by fantasy in the Tolkien/Dungeons and Dragons tradition of role-playing games but also elements from Greek mythology, such as centaurs as an available player character race.

The game is played under a unique rules system using ten attributes (nine in the first edition) and a large number of skills, both of which can be tested - the former using a d20, the latter using a d100.
