Cultist Simulator is a profound and unsettling masterpiece that defies easy categorization. It is a card-based narrative game where the 'rules' are intentionally obscured, mirroring the protagonist's descent into forbidden knowledge. You start with nothing but a few cards—Work, Health, Reason—and must piece together how to survive, then thrive, and eventually ascend.
The writing is some of the best in the medium, dripping with Lovecraftian dread and Victorian atmosphere. The UI on mobile is impressively managed, though it can get crowded during a busy run. It is a game that demands patience and the willingness to fail repeatedly. Every death is a lesson in the occult, and every successful ritual feels like a hard-won victory against a cold, indifferent universe.

In this infamous roguelike narrative card game, play as a seeker after unholy mysteries in a 1920s-themed setting of hidden gods and secret histories. Become a scholar of the unseen arts. Craft tools and summon spirits. Indoctrinate innocents. Seize your place as the herald of a new age.
Cultist Simulator was first released on PC and has more than 200,000 players all over the world. Now we’re bringing the cosmic mysteries of Cultist Simulator to mobile.
• Challenging roguelike gameplay - There is never only one history.
Cultist Simulator doesn’t hold your hand. Experiment, expire and transcend death with a story-driven legacy system. Over time you’ll learn enough to wrestle the game to its knees.
• Intense, immersive narrative – Combine cards to tell your own story.
A hefty novel’s worth of choice-based storytelling, from the creator of Fallen London and Sunless Sea. There are many paths through this game of ambition, appetite and abomination, and many ways your tale can end.
• A rich Lovecraftian world – Corrupt your friends and consume your enemies.
Search your dreams for sanity-twisting rituals. Translate grimoires and glean their lore. Penetrate the realm of the Hours and win a place in their service. Cultist Simulator brings the peripheral horror of Lovecraft’s tales to an entirely new setting.
Expand your knowledge with the DLCs: New Legacies, New Ascensions, New Mechanics...
• The Dancer - Join the Bacchanal
• The Priest - Knock, and Ye Shall Be Opened
• The Ghoul - Taste of the graveyard's fruit
• The Exile - Some there are who will not yield

Cultist Simulator is an award-winning narrative roguelike from Alexis Kennedy, creator of Fallen London and Sunless Sea. It is a game of exploration, world-building, and experimentation. There is no tutorial; you must discover how to play by interacting with the cards and verbs. Balance your needs for money and health against the encroaching madness of the invisible arts in this deeply atmospheric experience.
Deep, complex narrative
Innovative card-based mechanics
Roguelike replayability
Haunting atmospheric soundtrack
Use your 'Work' verb with 'Funds' or 'Health' to earn a living. Avoid 'Dread' and 'Fascination' by balancing your activities. If your health or funds reach zero, your journey ends prematurely.
