Cute Cult Sim ‘Cult of the Lamb’ Coming to Consoles in Addition to PC [Trailer]

Published

If throwing Animal Crossing into a cult simulator sounds like fun, then Devolver Digital and developer Massive Monster’s upcoming Cult of the Lamb might be your thing. Previously announced on Steam, the game will also be headed to the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch later this year.

The story for Cult of the Lamb puts players in the role of a possessed lamb that was saved from annihilation by an ominous stranger, who must repay their debt by building a loyal following in the stranger’s name. Players will start their cult in a land of false prophets, venturing out into diverse and mysterious regions to build a loyal community of woodland worshippers, all the while spreading your Word to become the one true cult.

In order to do so, you’ll be collecting and using resources to build new structures, perform dark rituals to appease the gods, and give unholy sermons to reinforce the faith. You’ll also be destroying the non-believers and rival cults in a sprawling, randomly generated world, absorbing their power and asserting your cult’s dominance. In order to “spread the good news”, you’ll have to train your flock and embark on a quest to explore and discover the secrets of five mysterious regions.

Publisher Gamera Games and developer Pollard Studio have teamed with Wired Productions (the folks who brought us Martha is Dead) to release the psychological horror game KARMA: The Dark World. The game, which has been in development since 2021, is currently slated for a release on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series. No release date has been announced.

In a press release, Wired Productions managing director Leo Zullo stated that they saw something special with KARMA: The Dark World. “It evokes, emotions and provokes players to think, feel and question everything. Pollard Studio wanted to create an intense cinematic experience, and I’m delighted we’re able to work so closely with them. It’s truly an exciting game that I can’t wait to reveal more about.”

Described as a first-person cinematic psychological thriller set in a dystopian world, KARMA: The Dark World takes place in East Germany, 1984. Players take on the role of Daniel McGovern, a Roam Agent for the omnipresent Leviathan Corporation’s Thought Bureau. You have been brought in to investigate actions that have happened in a very specific moment in time. To do so, Daniel infiltrates the memories of suspects to retrace their steps and piece together his investigations. In doing so, Daniel uncovers fragmented memories of his own lurking within the shadows.

As a Roam investigation officer, you work at night, completing the tasks given by the corporation in complete stealth. Your identity as a Roam Agent is intimidating, giving you leverage to gain entry. Using a combination of investigative tools and their own intellect, players must solve puzzles in order to unravel the truth. Diving into peoples’ minds will have you encountering hallucinations and randomly-changing environments. You have to pay attention to the time and space of your location, as well as observe and spot key personnel and events in order to find your way.
