Games where the player forms some sort of cult

[GentlemanCthulhu]

This could be any faction the player makes and manages, but the more cult-vibes there are and the more freedom in determining the type of faction the better. Bonus points for straight up mention of cults.

Just playing as a cultist is also allowed, but the cult elements need to be strong.

Example: Super Cult Tycoon (Sadly only a prototype).

You can do something like this in RimWorld. Though, you will need to do some RPing on your end.

Age of Decadence.

Age of Decadence.

Really?

In Numenera there is a cult which you can make to worship you. Is just a relatively small quest though.

 

[Machocruz]

If you want to see players forming cults around games, go to any forum

 

[Fishy]

Cultist Simulator

Pretty much yeah, don't think anything else comes near.

Make a game, gain an appreciation thread

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Age of Decadence.

Really?

Yeah. You can take the Jesus route. It even got expanded upon after release but I haven't tried it again since they did that, but I think they even made an ending based on the Jesus route.

You’re calling Christianity a cult?
Can’t say I don’t approve

 

[laclongquan]

Planescape Torment. You can choose to become Silent King who is sorta a god to the undeads in Dead Nations.

 

[zapotec]

The hubbologist?

Space Station 13 offers antaging as cultist on /tg/ servers or you could just simply RP yourself your own sect as a chaplain, AI or any other job if you are creative enough (I've created once an implant cult as a roboticist, we were gifting pious followers with blessings of flesh augmentation and turning any heretics into obedient cyborg slaves).

Nothing quite as satisfying as making the not-takens-from-glen-cook archons bend the fucking knee.

Is that game not totally abandoned and actually released in some parallel universe? Also very disappointing suggestions so far, which makes me believe that this theme (managing a cult) is currently unexploited in videogames. Here's your million dollar indie game idea. Now go make it.
