Today's game is Cult of the Lamb. I'd like to apologize to this game, as when i first saw it, I wrote it off as just being a "Here's a cute thing + satanism" kind of game. I don't mean it as a bad thing or some sort of jab to say "this thing bad", but it is not my personal taste. I decided to give it a try though after having a friend convince me to, and i have to admit that the game play is really fun. And the art style, the Lamb is adorable. I do wish there was more depth to them, though i wonder if it was something the developers intended for the Lamb to just seem like a Vessel of the Player's will.
There's the Cult Building section, which reminds me of Fire Emblem Fates, which had a similar section where you build your Army's camp, mixed with a little bit of Grave Yard Keeper (which i need to finish now that i think about it).
The combat though is really where i'm surprised. I, personally, am not a fan of Roguelikes. It's not that i think they're bad, just personally they are not for me. This one in particular though i find myself really enjoying. I'm not sure why, maybe because it's not difficult, or because of how it affects the building segment, but I find myself enjoying. I personally like stacking a poison buff on top of a powerful weapon, and taking a swing at everything to poison them.
I got as far as the first boss today, so something tells me this won't be a long game at all, though, then again it does have 50 Achievements, so it may be far longer, we'll see though.
Definitely not a short game. I thoroughly enjoyed playing it and may consider a replay in the future.
