Move over, boring city-builders, there's a new cult in town. Worshippers of Cthulhu, the latest obsession from Crazy Goat Games, is taking Steam Next Fest by storm, and it's not hard to see why. Imagine if Anno and Cultist Simulator had a baby, raised it on a steady diet of H.P. Lovecraft, and then unleashed it upon the unsuspecting gaming world.
Sure, you'll be managing resources, expanding your territory, and making sure your citizens (er, cultists) don't starve to death. That's city-building 101. But in Worshippers of Cthulhu, you're not appeasing some fickle mayor; you're currying favor with the Great Old Ones. That means sacrificing sanity (and possibly a few unfortunate souls) to appease ancient deities and unlock powers that would make mere mortals tremble. Think blood rituals, forbidden knowledge, and maybe a dash of tentacle-based architecture for good measure.
The genius of Worshippers of Cthulhu lies in its duality. One minute you're carefully planning your city layout, optimizing those supply chains like a cosmic logistics expert. The next? You're sacrificing goats (or interns, we don't judge) under a blood moon to appease Cthulhu's insatiable appetite for chaos. It's a constant balancing act between the mundane and the macabre, the earthly and the eldritch. And it's bloody brilliant.
The demo alone has players hooked, but the real fun is just beginning. Worshippers of Cthulhu is now in Early Access, meaning you can dive into this gloriously twisted world and help shape its development. Will you build a thriving metropolis dedicated to the Great Old Ones? Or will your cult descend into infighting and madness before the first tentacle even emerges from the void? The choice (and the inevitable descent into madness) is yours.
One thing's for sure: Worshippers of Cthulhu is more than just another city-builder. It's a darkly comedic, surprisingly strategic, and utterly captivating descent into Lovecraftian horror. In other words, it's everything we've ever wanted in a game. Now if you'll excuse us, we have a ritual to perform…
