Honey, I Joined a Cult vs This War of Mine
Honey, I Joined a Cult
Honey, I Joined a Cult is a whimsical cult simulation/management game where you play as the cult leader supreme managing your very own “startup cult”. The goal here is to set up your own cult compound, recruit as many cultists to your divine cause as you can, all the while making sure you’re profiting off every follower you get and avoiding scrutiny from the authorities.To be honest though, Honey, I Joined a Cult isn’t exactly a game where you joined a cult but instead puts you into the shoes of the leader of one. The game is very similar to Prison Architect so if you’ve enjoyed the latter, you’ll definitely love playing this game. It’s funny and the management part of the gameplay is fun to play. So, if you’ve always envisioned yourself leading a cult, you might want to give this game a try! After all, what could go wrong?
This War of Mine
This War of Mine is an indie, 2D survival management game that, unlike most games in its genre, is set not in a post-apocalyptic world but in a war-torn country. Despite being war-themed, the game doesn't cast you into the role of the brave soldier but of the average citizen trying to make the best of the situation and to survive long enough until the war breaks (if it ever).Due to this twist of perspective, along with the fact that every decision and action you make has consequences, both mentally and physically, on the character who did the deed as well as the team, the game ended up having a very tragic undertone and atmosphere throughout its gameplay. After all, you do have to make some difficult decisions in an effort to keep your people alive. From time to time, special events may also pop up and you will need to make a decision to be involved or to stay out of it.
Survival is also another important aspect of the game, and as such, you will need to scavenge for supplies and ensure that your people are well-fed and watered. Materials, tools, and items you gathered over your trips outdoors can be used to craft something else or be sold for some extra cash. During wartime, people are naturally more cautious and for some, more aggressive. It's wise to be careful whenever you encounter other "people" (they are NPCs), especially armed ones, lest your character get slain and your team stumbles straight into depression.
This War of Mine made headlights and game history with its challenging gameplay and of course, its brutally-honest look at the true victims of war. If you think your heart is ready to go through a rollercoaster of emotions, most of which are of the "sad" sort, then, you simply must give this game a try.
