The long-awaited Tarot of the Hours is finally available in the Church o’ Merch!
THE COMPANY IS NOT YOUR FRIEND
We should stop expecting companies to look after us like friends and family would, because they consistently prove that they won’t.
MAR #1: EDMUND
The grass is greening, the sun is shining and the global pandemic of COVID-19 continues to prowl the streets. Hey ho.
FEB #2: DUESSA
Happy grimmest month of the year, Beloveds! I have an announcement that might cheer you up. I’m not going to go into detail, but I *am* going to confirm that we’re working on some ✨ NEW CULTIST CONTENT ✨.
“What are your influences?”
This is probably the question I’ve been asked most over the years, and every time as soon as I answer it I think of someone I’ve left out. So here’s a semi-permanent list that answers the question.

JAN #2: BRITOMART

Britomart, as any fule kno, is one of the many faces of Elizabeth I in The Faerie Queene, representing chastity, which Spenser shoe-horned in late on in the writing process as it became more and more apparent that Elizabeth wasn’t going to marry anyone. Britomart falls in love with the frankly underwhelming […]

I had no experience marketing games before Cultist Simulator, so I taught myself with Gamasutra posts, Googling and YouTube videos. There’s loads of useful stuff out there about how to get your game to launch, but there’re slim pickings on what to do afterwards. Here’s an attempt to bridge that gap. The below is a […]
