Cultist simulator offers an interesting eldrich world, the way it combines mechanics with lore, hiding snippets of the world in every bit of flavour, dialogue, and action out come makes reading everything at least once rewarding. The lore is carried by fairly straight forward systems that hide depth and reward exploration, and the inexorable march of the timers is made engaging despite itself. It's a fun experience for the price, but it suffers from UI hick ups (nothing's outright broken, but certain things are fairly unintuitive) and the lack of tutorial can make it hard to even figure out how to win, however the game has already recieved substantial polish and UI improvements since launch and even at a loss the world is interesting to explore the first few times around, and there will be new scraps of lore to discover for far longer than that.
Or rather, it's a match three take on the dating sim genre with the porniness that goes hand in hand with said Genre. If you don't like match three games and/or porny games give this a pass, but the gameplay is well designed and well executed and the writing is amusing "dumb" fun. As far as personal opinions go, I much prefer this type of fanservice in games, rather than the type where there's no explanation. This game certainly "earns" it's sexiness, for lack of a better term.
