Honey, I Joined a Cult (2022)

Honey, I Joined a Cult is a vibrant tycoon and management game where players take the reins of their own burgeoning cult. The core gameplay loop revolves around meticulously building and expanding your cult's base, ensuring your followers are content, and strategically managing resources, funds, and faith to achieve maximum growth. This involves everything from setting daily schedules and training cultists to constructing specialized rooms like polygraph chambers and energy spas, all designed to keep your flock happy and dedicated. Players will need to master micro-management, assigning tasks based on priority to optimize operations and ensure the cult runs like a perfectly synchronized, faith-fueled machine. Team17's knack for delivering engaging and often quirky management simulations shines through in Honey, I Joined a Cult. The game embraces a playful yet deep approach to its subject matter, allowing for extensive customization of cult symbols, uniforms, and even the Divine Being your followers worship. Beyond the management of cultist well-being and base design, players must also cater to the whims of their cult leader and send followers on covert missions to gather resources and unlock new technologies. The emphasis on recruitment and retaining followers, ensuring their physical and mental health, and making strategic decisions about who to worship and how to present your cult to the outside world all contribute to its addictive and rewarding gameplay, making it a fitting addition to Team17's portfolio of successful management titles.
