I’m considering buying this next week. Has anyone here tried it yet?

It's a ripoff of Worshippers of Cthulhu, in my opinion. I'm astonished they're releasing both games at practically the same time.

TheLowestStone@lemmy.world on 23 Oct 2024 15:33 next collapse

The title is a typo. The link goes to the page for Worshippers of Cthulhu and that is the game I am asking about.

Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world on 23 Oct 2024 16:52 collapse

It was most definitely a typo.

Although it would be funny if someone tried to release a D-grade game called Worshippers of Cthulhum at the same time.

Well, now that you fixed the typo my joke is even less obvious.

Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world on 23 Oct 2024 19:44 collapse

My apologies, at least I sort of got your joke (indirectly). :)

TheLowestStone@lemmy.world on 23 Oct 2024 21:28 collapse

Honestly it would not surprise me. I had to double check.

So you’re saying Worshippers of Cthulu is a ripoff of… Worshippers of Cthulu?

How is it compared to Cult of Lamb?

batmaniam@lemmy.world on 23 Oct 2024 15:49 next collapse

No but it’s got a demo for free

False@lemmy.world on 24 Oct 2024 06:11 collapse

It’s an Anno reskin, but a fairly good one

yesman@lemmy.world on 23 Oct 2024 23:56 next collapse

This is genius! A citybuilder as a lovecraft cultist? How has nobody thought of this before?

Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works on 24 Oct 2024 01:01 next collapse

Wishlisted and following with great interest.

masquenox@lemmy.world on 24 Oct 2024 01:05 next collapse

where you play the bad guys

So we get to play as HP Lovecraft?

Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world on 24 Oct 2024 06:54 next collapse

Don’t this is possible.

You should drop the developers an email with this idea. :)

masquenox@lemmy.world on 24 Oct 2024 19:04 collapse

Nah, I don’t really think I want to play a Nazi simulator. Besides, there’s already something akin to that out there. It’s Call Of Duty.

Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works on 24 Oct 2024 17:50 collapse

I mean, I love Lovecraftian stuff, but that dude was a huge racist… Might be deliberate that you can’t play as him.

lemba@discuss.tchncs.de on 24 Oct 2024 12:39 next collapse

They (Crazy Goat Games) just c&p and replaced the assets of their own game Republic of Pirates…

BluesF@lemmy.world on 24 Oct 2024 17:20 collapse

“Lovercraftian” is a fun typo. I’m imagining developing a casual fwb relationship with Azathoth. Taking Cthulhu for a long walk on the beaches around R’lyeh…

Haha, just noticed this! 😅
