Growing up Gen X in the midst of the Satanic Panic, this game potentially becomes everything we were warned the world would become if you listened to rock music lol.
That said, my boyfriend and I made our entire cult out of cats.

Oh my, so much (accidental) foreshadowing in your post. I hope you enjoy the ride, our cult ended up with some rather … debatable ethics despite never indulging much in the more perverse and outright evil practices.

I would’ve loved to see this game come out back then. The pearl clutching would’ve probably broken a few knuckles.

Yeah even just the potential for “pure” follower aesthetics (aka eugenics) to satisfy our sense of order is so fucked up if you think about it.

Fuck that. I opened the game and the first thing that came to my mind was “let’s see how close I can get to a literal blood and sex cult”.
Not that close, I found out.
Or at least, a very tame version of it.

Thank you! I’ve been enjoying it a lot. i’ve been struggling a bit with ethics after some followers have been asking for various things. One wanted me to sacrifice another follower, which i turned down, another asked me to sacrifice them, which i also turned down.
Then there was a dissenter which wanted to leave. The game told me my only option was to talk them out of it, put them in prison, or let them go. I chose to let them go and the asshole stole some of my gold which i’m not too pleased about. So far though i’ve kept a pretty clean moral slate (outside the bowl of shit)
