    Good production value but a very mediocre game. Play on hard and you see how **** up the overall balance is, how bad the tutorial (like do something wrong an being stuck in base for 7 days(!)), feel the bugs in gameplay (sometimes enemy’s ignore push back etc.). Hitboxes are…yeah, they are there. And they are BAD.

    Scaling overall is a joke. Want to love the game but the mediocre gameplay    Good production value but a very mediocre game.

    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.    … Expand

    Cool concept, art style, character designs etc.. The combat mechanics are way too basic and shallow though. More of a base-building game than a hack & slay. Maybe I'm just not the target audience. Play Hades instead if you haven't.

    美术风格突出，游戏难度一般，即使在最高难度。种地能非常有效的解决一切困难，扩大规模可以让一切迎刃而解。总体上讲是不错的小品级作品，不要期望太高，这不是大家想的那种大作。当然定价在国区较高，性价比降下来了。游戏的bug开始时很多，但是后期部分有得到修正，虽然那时候我已经通关了。。。美术风格突出，游戏难度一般，即使在最高难度。种地能非常有效的解决一切困难，扩大规模可以让一切迎刃而解。总体上讲是不错的小品级作品，不要期望太高，这不是大家想的那种大作。当然定价在国区较高，性价比降下来了。游戏的bug开始时很多，但是后期部分有得到修正，虽然那时候我已经通关了。。。

    O game é bom mas fica bem enjoativo ao longo do tempo, por isso dou um 6.
    A história é bem legal e animação muito bem feita e bonitinha.

    The first couple of hours are amazingly addictive but it unfortunately gets old rather quickly.

    Cult of the Lamb is of course a very popular game and I understand why: it's cute, disturbing, and an excellent game to stream.

    I can honestly say that Cult of the Lamb was a pure enjoyment with every minute of gameplay and worth every penny of the $24.99 price tag. Massive Monster Studios has an iconic hit on their hands with Cult of the Lamb and that is thanks to a simplistic yet fluid gameplay mechanic, combined with a creative community management balanced with exploration and depth that rival some mainstream titles. After playing this, I am looking for something this year that can come close to touching this for Game of the Year. I can say that I'm a devout believer and 100% converted follower to fan.

    Cult of the Lamb has made a follower out of me. Recruiting followers, building a base, and running through a gratifying loop of fighting, looting, and dying all merge into an incredibly satisfying game.
