Worshippers of Cthulhu is the City-Builder for Your Inner Mad Architect

Tired of zoning ordinances and traffic congestion? Yearning for something with a little more eldritch horror in your city-builder? Worshippers of Cthulhu, the breakout hit of Steam Next Fest, has heard your pleas (probably through the whispers of a tentacled deity). This ain't your average "build a utopia" simulator, folks. This is about embracing the cosmic chaos and summoning an ancient evil so powerful, it makes Godzilla look like a house pet.

 

Sacrifices, Supply Chains, and Sanity (Not Necessarily in That Order)

Sure, you'll still be drawing up city plans, managing resources, and ensuring your citizens have access to essential amenities (mostly because sacrificing all of them is bad for morale). But in Worshippers of Cthulhu, you're not just building a city, you're building a cult empire. That means placating ancient gods with a taste for the macabre. Think blood rituals, forbidden texts, and maybe a few strategically placed sacrificial altars (hey, gotta keep those property values up somehow).

The brilliance of this game is in its delicious blend of mundane and madness. One minute you're meticulously optimizing your potato harvest (gotta keep those cultists fed, they get cranky when they're hungry), the next you're summoning an unspeakable horror from the depths of space-time. It's a delicate dance, a balancing act between keeping your cult functioning (and relatively sane) and unleashing enough eldritch power to make the neighbors jealous.

 

Early Access: Help Shape the Madness (and Maybe Summon Cthulhu)

The demo alone is enough to convert even the most skeptical city-builder enthusiast, but the real fun is just beginning. Worshippers of Cthulhu is now in Early Access, meaning your input can help shape the game's unholy evolution. Will your metropolis become a beacon of cosmic horror, a testament to the glory of the Great Old Ones? Or will your cult devolve into a chaotic mess of infighting and bad architectural decisions? The fate of humanity (and your sanity) rests in your hands.

So ditch those rose-tinted utopias, embrace the darkness, and join the cult of Worshippers of Cthulhu. It's the most fun you can have with tentacles this side of the abyss (probably).
