game sucks ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ass but its pretty fun

Now I have been a fan of massive monster and their games for a while now. I played The Adventure Pals and Never Give Up, and enjoyed them both decently, plus I'm really into their art style, its just so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ CUTE man. so when I saw this was happening, it got me really excited. it seems like a wonderful blend of 2 genres I was a pretty sizeable fan of, and I waited in anticipation for its release. I have seen a lot of mixed reviews on this game, saying its shallow, buggy, and all-round not so great. I have 100% completed the game, and I think I can give a full proper opinion.

first of all, I think this game is both good and bad in a few ways. first of all, I agree with the gameplay being shallow and basic. both the town building and roguelike aspects are very simple, you have a few weapon variations, a few curse variations, you can do a dodge roll, there are a bunch of tarot cards that slightly buff you, its very basic stuff. with the town building side, there are 3 meters to keep track of, which in tandem keep your cultists happy; faith, hunger, and sickness. problem is, these 3 meters are piss-easy to keep on top of. in comparison to something like don't starve, it makes COTL look like a game for infants. on the occasion, a follower will ask you to do something like get them a special item, or cast a ritual, or eat faeces (don't ask), these are interesting the first time you get them, but there aren't a whole lot of them, and they don't get MORE interesting in any way. both sides of this game, mechanic wise, feel rather half baked, it feels like there is so much more that could've been done with the idea, so much potential. I've heard that the devs might be adding stuff in the future, which im excited for, but i cant be sure

now what I DO think this game does well, is everything else. making a cult itself is a lot of fun. cultists have to do tasks for you to help gather resources while praying to a big statue to give you divine faith, which is basically xp currency to level up your cult. and unlocking new buildings, and follower skins, and decorating everything, it all just works, it works really well, and its satisfying once you've got the cult looking the way you envisioned it. and the art style man, it blends the dark and morbid aspect of the sacrifices and the evil twisted monsters, with a lighthearted tone that feels more 'for everyone' and that's ok. while I do think the roguelike aspect is shallow, another thing I've heard complaints about is that its too easy. and yes, it is easy. but to me, that's ok. a big part of keeping your cult running is, while you go on these 'crusades' to fight monsters and kill the 4 bishops, you also need to collect resources out in the cold unforgiving world. when you are killed while on your crusades, however, you will lose around 30% of all the items you picked up, obviously giving you incentive to 'git gud'. Now I think its ok how average COTL's difficulty is, because see, if the game wiped the floor with you, it would be really difficult to get the resources you need to expand your cult, and without those, everything would fall apart. While roguelike connoisseurs may be able to make their way through the game just fine, newcomers to the genre, or people who enjoy the genre, but aren't the best at it, will have trouble properly enjoying the games town building aspects if they cant even get the resources needed to expand it.

the last thing I must address is the bugs. I've come a cropper to a fair few of these bugs, things like the camera staying focused on something it shouldn't, or buttons on both my controller and keyboard just straight up not working. at the time of this review, the game is not the most stable and you're bound to see some odd happenings at least once during a playthrough. now none of my bugs were exactly world-ending, but I cannot fault the people who left negative reviews because a terrible bug soft-locked their game, impeding their progress. so because of my (albeit mildly frustrating) bug encounters, I cannot say they are annoying enough to turn one away from the game itself.

in conclusion, I think this game is definitely flawed, yet its flaws do not completely take away from the fact that is a solid game to the end, that I enjoyed playing the whole way through. and for that, it gets a thumbs up from me.

Oh my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ god i absolutely despise this game.
I'd just like to say that I played sonic adventure 1 before this, and i enjoyed it decently, but its probably because tails' and knuckles' levels weren't abysmal like they are in this game, and you aren't forced to play one after you finish a sonic stage.
In SA2, tails and knuckles levels are shoehorned in, and they are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ATROCIOUS.
The tails mech is lame and boring and hard to control, and flying around as knuckles on literal braindead boring fetch quests is a stark contrast to the fun blazing speed of sonic, so it doesn't work well in the same game, and I hate it.
Sonic's levels were the only thing I enjoyed about SA2 because they were actually SONIC, WHICH IS WHAT I ENJOY ABOUT A SONIC GAME.
Everytime they ended, I audibly groaned because I knew I would have to slog through 2 more levels of boring garbage to have fun again.
And look, if for some ungodly reason you enjoy these ♥♥♥♥♥♥ levels, good for you, but I don't care to play a bunch of dumb garbage in my sonic game (ironic, I know)
I didn't even want to try out team dark because i couldn't give less of a ♥♥♥♥
I gave the game a good run, but eventually just got too sick of its ♥♥♥♥, and stopped
It is genuinely baffling to me that so many people hold this game in such high regard, I was expecting to have a great time after hearing so many good reviews from people. Those people all probably just have nostalgia boners or something
Maybe its just that its a port, but ♥♥♥♥ this game. I never want to play it again as long as i live

This franchise ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucks. I like it though

This is a demo for a very competent looking rhythm game. It has a unique art style and the music is really good. I found myself listening to the ost right after finishing all the levels. Play the video game it is good

I played this game by accident, and then fell in love with it, also by accident, and then finished it in one sitting, by accident as well. good game, play it

There was never any risk of bad weather. 8/10

spooky ghost i cry

imagine playing this game before pyrocinical talked about it, like me. yeah, you can't can you? that's what i thought. stupid.

I love rainman
