    Cult of the Lamb truly is a great gaming experience reminiscent of Moonlighter with its interdependent management/rogue-like aspect. The sadistic elements that one would expect from a demonic cult are cleverly designed and the whole experience almost feels as a God Game as one can do almost anything they yearn for with the cult. Both the management and the action parts do not take any risks and remain too classic. Nevertheless, their adequate balance enable the player to fully appreciate the title’s offbeat concept.

    Scaling overall is a joke. Want to love the game but the mediocre gameplay and lazy as **** „difficulty“ system lowers this to a average 5. If you don’t care about gameplay but just some cool fancy optics and cult feeling, go for it. But gameplay wise, there are WAY better games out there.    … Full Review »

    Overall good game. Nice animation. Music is funny, but couldn't progress because of bugs. Stuck on quest where Ritual was needed. UIOverall good game. Nice animation. Music is funny, but couldn't progress because of bugs. Stuck on quest where Ritual was needed. UI disappeared. Also, got game stuck when rolled b/n levels during the crusade. Only option - load. Overall, game does not work for me anymore and new save made it worse. Leaving 3 because it is how much I've spent hours doing the same task over again, then stuck, then loading, then bugging again.… Full Review »
