It is so cute it hurts and the soundtrack is super cool. What are some other games you’d suggest for Cult of the Lamb lovers?

I just got a refurbished old hp laptop for free and I can do some gaming on Steam but uh, it’s not a gaming laptop per se. I also have a switch. Hit me!

There’s a wealth of quality games available when you stop looking at the billboard titles. Fuck Diablo, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Starfield.

Go play Undertale, Bastion, Ori and the Blind Forest, Death’s Door, Shovel Knight.

So many great, cheap games out there.

Hell yeah! I’m not good enough at FPS games or literally anything that requires two joysticks to navigate worlds lol so I’m very happy to have delved into indie games. I played Undertale and LOVED it but I got stuck at Flowey and gave up lol. I’m really bad with that, I don’t know if I’ve ever actually completed an entire game, maybe once. I’ll definitely check the rest out though

Sounds like you need a tad more DETERMINATION. You can beat Flowey. Promise :)

Welcome back from retirement! Haven’t actually played CotL myself but I’m glad you’re enjoying it

Thank you! For whatever reason I stopped playing games regularly after Kingdom Hearts 1 came out (I am old) but every now and then I’ll get suuuuper obsessed and play for hours a day for a couple weeks and then go back into hibernation. So far so good though lol

Whatever works for you, right? Baldur’s Gate 3 is another great game to get lost in. I just beat it for the first time after probably over 60 hours and I know I could do things very differently on a second play through I’ve already started… on top of the 2 co op games I’m in with other people 🤣

Yes Baldur’s Gate looks sick! Now I’m considering just downloading the games with more intense graphics on my partners’ ps5 lol. I now have like 15 games on my wishlist

If you liked the roguelite elements of Cult of the Lamb, definitely check out Hades, one of the best roguelites ever made. Don’t know if your laptop could run it, but it is on the switch.

I enjoyed Hades but do note (no spoilers):

Every part of the game gets about 3 times better and more interesting after you win your first run. If you’re like a dozen hours in and you expected more out of the game but haven’t won a run yet, I highly recommend turning on easy mode (it reduces incoming damage a fraction) until you get the win. I did this and it both improved my enjoyment and reduced my frustration with the game so much.

This is because the mirror abilities are incredibly powerful and will help you win, but you need to play a lot to get enough resources to purchase them. So if you want to see fresh story and more content without grinding for the mirror, consider using easy mode to get the first win.

Slay the Spire is a fun deckbuilder that you can get on Steam or for your Switch.

Outer Wilds is imo one of the best video games ever, period. Don’t read any reviews, just play it. It’s genuinely a very impactful experience.

Unfortunately you can’t say much about it without diminishing the experience, you kinda just have to recommend it with “Trust me bro” but like… trust me bro
