    A delightfully tongue in cheek death cult simulator, whose excellent aesthetics stumble over a very high randomness factor. Each new game relies more on blind luck than strategy in its early stages, painfully taking you out of the “Our Fish Lord Cometh” fantasy and reminding you of the underlying mechanical structure. Still, quite a refreshing “shot” in between more demanding games.

    A brilliant idea for a simple, procedurally generated strategy game, held back by repetitiveness. [11/2017, p.71]

    A streamlined, easy-to-play strategy game with a uniquely dark premise that's ideal for sporadic sessions. [Nov 2017, p.83]

    It’s a stylish game centered around an interesting moral dilemma. However, there just isn’t enough world-building to hammer the point home.

    A winningly nasty turn-based cult sim with beautiful monochrome art and surgical orchestral audio. [Recommended]
