  • Pretty good but I’d really like a second save file

    I love the game and only have a few suggestions but to be clear it’s a great game and my suggestions are just that suggestions. Firstly, another save file would be great so I could try the new dlc when they come out without having to die in my current game. Secondly, the game takes place on a table top I think and it would be neat if you could maybe change it to a different theme perhaps you could unlock them by completing ascensions. Lastly, I love the music but an option to maybe skip some of them or play a specific one would be pretty neat in my opinion. Overall I love the game but I just think these could be neat improvements but of course I’m not a game designer so there just ideas.

  • Great game, pain in the AS$ moving system

    The game is great, with many challenging and well thought ideas however, moving cards is an annoyance. For example, I have 83 funds, I accidentally split the pile by mistake. No worries, I’ll just move the pile back. I wish it was that simple but every time I do it the pile just splits up again. If there was a way were you could just hold down on a card and it’ll take ALL copies of that said card for you to freely distribute and move them around, I’d give this game a 5 star.

  • Solitaire with a side of mysticism

    Cultist simulator is a frantic pursuit of eldritch power in a dystopian state.

    You can win a minor victory without ever dipping more than a toe into the dreaming world of the Mansus. You don’t have to sacrifice life to become an immortal.

    Cultist simulator is interesting because if you fail, you have only yourself to blame. The game consists of using cards you draw with “actions” that consume them. The results have an element of randomness, but if you carefully observe the possible results of your actions the randomness is highly controllable. Each of the “game over” threats have a “three strikes, you’re out” rule to them. If you get a strike, you can avoid generating more if you pay attention, and focus on generating a card to clear the threat.

    You will lose because you will get wrapped up in figuring out the next step in becoming more powerful, and miss a failure condition generating out of control.

    This game is about keeping managed control as you delve deeper into a richly written world of otherworldly knowledge. It feels great, and let’s you empathize with what it’s like to descend further into questionable choices as you pursue power.

    Play it. It’s worth the cost. You can win a minor victory without ever becoming a magical demigod. But where is the fun in that?

  • Faithful reproduction

    This is exactly the same as the pc version now with touch.... ignore the bad reviews from people who do not understand the game and what it tries to achieve. It’s an immense grand strategy played with cards and timers with over 400 hours on the pc and quite a bit on tablet I have managed nearly all of the end conditions and it’s still great to sit down and sink a couple of hours into this, and you can still be surprised good job

  • An Instant Cult Classic

    Been playing for a long time and am glad to see they are finally releasing the DLCs on mobile! I’m loving them so far and for the price they are more than worth it. If you haven’t played it it’s a very unique time and resource management card game with very interesting flavor text and lore based around managing different kinds of cults and gaining magical knowledge and power. If you think any of that sounds cool, check. It. Out.
    P.s. I wish Weather Factory a speedy release of Book Of Hours (new game in development based in the same universe) and would like to remind them they have fans on mobile that can’t wait to get their hands on it.

  • Favorite game

    I usually don’t even receive games but this one is definite worth it. I’ve played through 20 times and still haven’t won but each time I lose I simply groan a bit before smiling and pressing new game. Without a doubt the best game I have on my phone and truly the best game I’ve ever played
  • Great game

    And also, not every pc ported games are supported continuously like this game. Great game ported by great company
  • Impossibly odd, utterly enjoyable

    I was dubious about a digital card game; but a friend insisted I try it, and I’m very glad they did. This game is beautiful; this game is frustrating. This game is terrifying, sad, quixotic, mirthful, and ultimately, mesmerizing. You don’t just play this game, you explore it. And although feeling out the rules might seem like a devilish proposition at first, you quickly realize that the act of discovery is a vital part of this game’s magic. You delve into the rules like your character delves into the occult, pulling you right along with them and playing with your expectations and emotions in ways you didn’t think possible. I can’t recommend this game enoug.

  • Very intelligent

    It’s called Cult Simulator for a reason

    I myself am very interested in the occult and in the real world there is no lead or guide to such practice of the invisible arts

    This is so deep and realistic in a way of the occult

    It’s all about learning and if you fail, don’t fret that’s the point. Just like real life.

    By failing is the result of mastering the game.

    I wasn’t very good at playing which everyone won’t be but in time you will master it

    I had a cult for a very long time and never lost

    I’m the end I succeeded but went down a dangerous..almost Lovecraftion path.

    Don’t let anyone tell you it’s bad just because it has no tutorial to it.

    It’s amazing and I want more of this.

    Also there is a tutorial but you have to find it for yourself and it also depends on what occult lead you want to learn.

  • Indoctrinated

    Such a clever game. Been at this for a year, and I’m still discovering hidden wrinkles that I didn’t see before. Takes a while to master, but the power you’ll wield over the game as an adept makes all those trials and tribulations pay off. Can’t wait for Book of Hours.
