Cult of the Lamb puts you in the clutches of a cult leader, but not just any cult leader, but an adorably twisted one. This game combines elements of mazmorras roguelike with a cult simulatorwhere your goal is to create and manage your own community of animal worshipers. But what’s so special about it? Well, the unique feature is that you can decide whether you treat them with love or subject them to cruel torment.
In an interview with PC Gamer, one of the game’s directors, Julian Wiltonreveals that Cult of the Lamb went through several stages before reaching its current formAt one point, it focused on an actual god and then a demon creating his own version of hell. However, the developers eventually realized that the dynamics between cruelty and kindness towards the followers was much more attractive.
This is how this video game was born, a space where you can unleash your cult leader inside and enjoy (or suffer) the adoration of adorable little animals. But remember, they are just games… or so we hope.
