The Last Line of defense
Cursed Station is a Location in the Post Apocalyptic Moscow Metro , and is seen only in the Video Game Metro 2033 .
Overview
Cursed Station, like many others has a very typical true-to-life layout. A main passageway running the length of the station, with many smaller off-shoots leading to the platforms. The station is very close to the surface as the sky can be seen at the top of the elevators.
The Station is only seen in the Video Game Metro 2033. When Artyom and Khan reach the station, the remaining few survivors live in fear of the impending doom that is the seemingly never ending horde of Nosalises. Makeshift shelters are seen on the flights of escalators, and a last line of defence comprised of sandbags, Machineguns and the last few soldiers stand valiantly at the bottom of the escalators.
One of the individual shrines seen around the room
At the far end of the platform is a concrete wall, with a hold made in it. The ventalation room behind the wall acts as a shrine to the dead. Half way down the main passage two staircases go upwards towards another set of escalators, this time heading down to another partof the station. This area acts as an airlock, and is innaccesable to Artyom. Both platforms are blocked off at both ends, although on one side Nosalises have dug through and are entering the station.
