Cult of the Lamb Review

Cult of the Lamb reviewed by Tom Marks on PC, also available on PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch.

"Cult of the Lamb is an eclectic mix of a base management game and an action roguelite that come together extremely well. Its combat is immensely satisfying even if its short runs and the relative lack of variety between them doesn’t give it the lasting appeal of other action roguelikes, but building your very own cult base and tending to a flock of followers can be just as fun as any swing of the axe."

"This game truly makes you feel like you're sacrificing your friends to an almighty force

I've literally never played a roguelite before this game but the cult mechanics, art and music drew me in. Super fun game!

A base-builder with rogue like elements? Absolutely sign me up

[RiverBoyBeats]

Thanks for the kind words re music. Glad you enjoyed it✨🥰

3:10 the "ineffective goo" can oneshot or deal a LOT of damage to the enemies that are hit by it the moment it lands, after that it applies a blight on them dealing DOT
aside from that, you can dash cancel most weapon combos (except for the hammer of course, which you can release earlier to make it faster and still deal a considerable amount of damage) to do the animation of each attack twice, and extend the time it takes for an attack to be released

Devolver Digital supports awesome indie studios with fresh ideas and cool asthetic games

Sooo...more building less random fighting? Thats actually makes me interested.

We get it. You will not be playing this beyond the credits😂

[JimsGameRoom]

The fact that you were happy with your 13h and it felt more like a linear game honestly sold me on this. Keen to pick up the physical down the line.

The soundtrack is a great highlight, the way it carves the contours of cult building and combat. River Roy should get an award for his outstanding chillhop innovation..

[kenrickbaughman]

Great game by Developers and team, there pushing the limits with FMOD as well because sound is key! Sounds amazing in surround sound if you have the right setup with Sub! Awesome game

Here’s your obligatory lamb sauce comment

[tanuki]

If IGN gives it an 8, that means its a 10 of course!

[it.sy.]

not to be that guy, but this is sure to be a “cult” classic

[Collura]

This game gets the 10/10 from me. Just got the platinum & still wanna start a fresh save!

[brilliantarrow]

7:12 It's not actually 'endless' it ends after 3 sets. In the current version anyway

[novenlim]

The art style reminded me of Don't Starve Together

[MateoJr.]

I'll pick it up at a later date. Seems kinda lacking in content for a roguelike after you beat the game. Devs did say they plan for more content in the future.

[jimsegars]

Started playing it yesterday the game is fun as hell

The incor curses do work, mostly on bosses though that stay still long enough to suffer from it.
