About

Cult of the Lamb (2022) is Massive Monster’s mix of roguelike action and cult management, published by Devolver Digital. A lamb about to be sacrificed is saved by a mysterious god in chains, on one condition: build a following in its name.

You crusade through randomised dungeons against the bishops of the Old Faith, then head home to preach, farm, hold rituals and keep your flock fed, faithful, and only occasionally sacrificed.
