Like SilverFlight wrote, it is implied in game to be a dream (or maybe something recreated from the Book of Prophecies, I'm not sure, either way not real). Events in Dwarf Woodlands also happen alternatively to those in Birth by Sleep. Yes, Beast's curse was broken (although unlike in the film the castle doesn't look any different, except you can't go to the West Wing and its corridor; we also don't see the servants after the scene of Beast's transformation; I guess the creators didn't want to make their new models). Nothing is mentions of the villagers, nor we see the village, but I doubt they have anything to do with the Heartless marching on the castle; they were probably attracted to Gaston's darkness. By the way, there's walkthrough on YouTube with English text.
