I really loved playing this game, until I experienced a game breaking bug where new buildings won't unlock. Sadly, the GOG version is far behind the one on Steam, so I requested a refund because the game's incomplete here. If my request is granted, I'll buy it on Steam instead.
Don't make the mistake I did.
I came into cult of the lamb expecting a throwaway game. I dont think it presents too much in terms of changing the formula, but it keeps you perfectly addicted by constantly feeding you more and more of the good feeling juice as you play. I havent blacked out for 12 hours playing a game since I was 16. That is, till Cult of the Lamb.
Only complaint would be that combat is mid at best.
The player takes on the role of Lamb and must explore different areas, collect resources, defeat enemies and grow their cult to become more powerful. i found great that the game also includes a morality system, which allows the player to choose whether to be a benevolent leader or a malevolent cult leader.also the cult management is a nice touch and slow the pace of so many roguelike action, the story is cool too.
The game's combat system is also very enjoyable. The player can use their own attacks to defeat enemies, and as their cult grows, they can recruit more followers to fight alongside them. The combat is fast-paced and satisfying, and the player is given a variety of weapons to choose from, including melee and ranged weapons.
the game's artstyle and aesthetics are very charming, making it an overall enjoyable experience. that cute and dark theme style is great the general color pallete is strong.
Unfortunately, the game can also be quite repetitive at times, as one will often be doing similar tasks over and over again. The game's performance is also not the best, with many players encountering frame rate issues and occasional bugs that can hinder their gameplay.
its a must-play for anyone who enjoys action-adventure games or management simulators. While the game is not without its flaws, it is still a great experience overall, and players are sure to have a blast building their own cult in a world full of secrets and dangers.
