You see your cult thrive as you gain new followers by converting the poor animals you’ve saved during crusades to be devoted and loyal servants.
CULT OF THE LAMB REVIEW UPGRADE
It is incredibly satisfying seeing your camp growing and developing as you play, such as when you return from a crusade with just enough materials to build something new or you can finally afford the last upgrade on your demonic summoning circle.
New structures you build and then upgrade can provide benefits to the cult, the camp and even future crusades. You initially start tending to the needs of the cult yourself planting, watering and harvesting the farms, but as you progress, you can unlock more building choices and other means of getting the day to day jobs done. You can build sleeping bags and upgrade them to huts, keeping your followers safe and happy. Īs their glorious leader, you have to look after and provide for your followers. Such as a day of rest, a grand feast or the totally normal reanimation of my favourite follower. As your flock grows, you start to unlock more rituals and each new ritual adds to your cult’s specific doctrine. They may ask for you to recover a missing friend in an upcoming crusade (which means more followers), ask to perform a specific ritual, or in my experience, feed each other shit until one of them dies. As the glorious leader of a thriving cult, your followers may approach you from time to time asking for help or assistance. The crusades are only part of the fun as the day-to-day management of your cult is where I spent most of my time. Now, there were definitely weapons that I preferred, and I wouldn’t want to say any of the weapons were bad but the massive and ridiculously strong hammers are by far the best! These weapons, as well as the spells at your disposal, can be upgraded between runs with the help of your loyal followers. At the start of a crusade, you’re given a random weapon and spell.
Although, the dungeons and weapons don’t have the depth or variety like Hades or Enter the Gungeon, if you’re familiar.Įach venture in to the dungeons, or “crusades”, are usually shorter bouts with each run usually taking around 10 minutes. Saying that Cult of the Lamb is just a rogue-like would be a little misleading but it still has randomly generated rooms for you to explore as well as a variety of monsters and bosses for you to slay. The first thing most people will notice is the cute and charming art style, which really only made the eating of shit sandwiches that much more satisfying. I treated my followers like they were my family- a family I didn’t mind locking up, feeding poop or sacrificing when required to save my wooly behind. Did I mention you also get to manage a super cute flock of animals who’ve sworn to serve and obey you? Well, I, for one, was a kind and forgiving leader. Cult of the Lamb is an action rogue-like that has you step into the hooves of a poor sacrificial lamb borrowing powers from an ancient and disturbing deity and then hunting down and exacting revenge on his very captors.
