Cult of the Lamb casts players as a possessed lamb rescued from destruction by an ominous stranger, now bound to repay that debt by gathering a devoted following in the stranger's name. In a land overrun by false prophets, you set out to found your own cult, journeying through varied and mysterious regions to grow a community of woodland Followers and spread your Word until you stand as the one true faith.
Building that flock forms the backbone of this action-adventure title. Players gather and use resources to raise new structures, carry out dark rituals meant to please the gods, and deliver sermons that strengthen their followers' devotion. This management side pairs with the indie game's strategy elements, giving each cult a home base to nurture and expand.
Beyond the settlement, players venture into a sprawling, randomly generated world to cut down non-believers, battle waves of enemies, and defeat rival cult leaders in order to absorb their power and cement their own dominance. Training your flock and setting out to explore four mysterious regions drives the quest forward, cleansing non-believers and spreading enlightenment while performing mystical rituals on the path to becoming the mighty lamb god.
