Twinblade★ 4,074 Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Cult of the Lamb Review - A Cult Classic - GameSpot Quote The Good Combat and dungeoneering are fast-paced, fluid, and fun Skill trees, mini-games, upgrades, and base management elements are robust but not overwhelming Art design and music are dark-yet-vibrant and creepy-yet-endearing A surprising amount of customization and player-choice make the game very replayable Accessibility options ensure the game is fun-yet-challenging for a wide variety of players The Bad Naturally, content can be a bit crude at times Spikes in combat difficulty and resource generation might be found frustrating Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 4,074 Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 It sometimes feels like indie devs are unable to make good games that aren't roguelikes. Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 4,074 Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 Apparently the base building aspect is fun and a bigger part of the game than the roguelike dungeon crawling. Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 4,074 Posted August 11, 2022 Author Share Posted August 11, 2022 I bought this. Its inevitably going to be yet another roguelike that I won't finish. I have way too much time and money on my hands 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Remij 4,832 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Roguelikes are fucking awesome. A great roguelike with awesome music = an incredible game. The Binding of Isaac is one of my favorite games of all time 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ike★ 2,931 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Returnal the best roguelike around and shows what can be done with a AAA budget in the genre. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 4,074 Posted August 12, 2022 Author Share Posted August 12, 2022 This game's gameplay loop is damn good so far. It moves at a nice pace and you're constantly unlocking stuff and progressing through the many (but easy to understand and intuitive) systems that make up the base building/management aspect. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I played about 90 minutes and totally agree. If I wasn't actively passing out, I'd keep playing it right through the intro section. I just gave my first sermon at the Temple. The combat feels too basic, but the animation is still satisfying. Link to post Share on other sites
