FroGames — Moments You'll Remember
Your prophet has returned from the dungeon with one less bishop and a lot of loot. But the followers are hungry, someone is dissenting, and the poop is piling up. In two turns, The One Who Waits awaits you.
What is it
A cult to build, bishops to defeat, a flock to keep alive
Cult of the Lamb: The Board Game is the official board game adaptation of the video game by Massive Monster and Devolver Digital, created by Paper Fort Games. The design bears the signature of Daniel Alexander, James Faulkner, Chris Kingsnorth and Sean Lemon. The loop is the same as the one that made the video game famous: you go out to risk your skin, you return to rule the cult.
Each player guides one of the four prophets (Lamb, Goat, Owl or Snake) for four rounds divided into two phases. In the Crusade, you travel through a branching dungeon, fight with dice weapons, assign attacks and decide how much to risk. In the Cult phase, you place followers and prophets on action spaces, build buildings, promulgate doctrines and ensure that the flock is healthy, fed and faithful. After four rounds, the one with the most victory points wins.
The Retail Edition is the standard edition: the game described above, without the exclusive content of the Kickstarter campaign and without the extras of the Deluxe and All-In Deluxe editions.
Two games in one: you risk your skin in the dungeon, then you pay the price at your cult.
The secret of Cult of the Lamb in one line
Faith will be tested, followers will dissent and poop will become a real problem. And yes, that's the beauty of the game.
The tone of the game
Cult of the Lamb: The Board Game
The game declares support for a single player. The dungeon works well on its own, while the fight for action spaces in the Cult phase loses part of its tension: it becomes an optimization challenge against the game.

The ingredients of the cult
Four rounds, two phases and a long list of things that can go wrong. These are the pieces that make up the evening.

Dice weapons
In the dungeons you roll the dice, assign attacks, activate abilities and Curse and decide how much to risk for the reward.
Branching dungeons
Choose the path among enemies, bosses, shops and events. Every fork in the road is a bet on what you will find at the end.
Bishops and The One Who Waits
The bishops of the Old Faith are the most fearsome adversaries. Then there's the final showdown with The One Who Waits.
A cult to feed, a bishop to defeat and a whole table watching you as you choose who to feed.
