Cultist Simulator
Seize forbidden treasures. Summon alien gods. Feed on your disciples. Cultist Simulator is a game of apocalypse and yearning from Alexis Kennedy, creator of Fallen London and Sunless Sea. Play as a seeker after unholy mysteries, in a 1920s-themed setting of hidden gods and secret histories. Perhaps you're looking for knowledge, or power, or beauty, or revenge. Perhaps you just want the colours beneath the skin of the world. In this roguelike narrative card game, what you find may transform you forever. Every choice you make, from moment to moment, doesn't just advance the narrative - it also shapes it. Become a scholar of the unseen arts. Search your dreams for sanity-twisting rituals. Craft tools and summon spirits. Indoctrinate innocents. Seize your place as the herald of a new age.

That’s the real beauty of Weather Factor’s debut title — the world feels so large and full of possibilities, even though everything is mainly told through small snippets of text. It’s filled with poetry, like descriptions of a vial of Greydawn Oil that’s “the precise color of the hours when one cannot sleep,” and it makes you want to explore and unravel its mysteries. And it makes you work for it, reading between the lines and imagining a realm unseen. Though I have some minor quibbles about the game’s interface, I find myself returning to its world again and again. Score: 90/100 Cultist Simulator is out today on PC.

Cultist Simulator’s mobile port is a shining example of how to port a game without sacrificing what makes it so great. It’s unique, lovely, and bizarre and it’s never the same experience twice.

A massive part of me wishes to scream about my hatred of this game! I hate it because it beat me so many times. However, it is a special game with so many amazing ideas. Moreover, no playthrough is the same, and the hellish learning curve makes it extremely rewarding. I may have been terrible at it, but my lack of basic foundations was to blame. Accordingly, if you love the card game, you will adore this video game adaptation, and you should buy a copy from the Xbox store!

As far as I can tell, the game is deterministic, and if you play correctly, when you learn what playing correctly even IS, then you shall succeed and ascend to your rightful place.
