Honey, I Joined a Cult is an enjoyable game, as long as players know what to expect from this kind of management experience. The mechanics work well, there’s a constant sense of forward momentum, and the player is constantly busy contemplating how to increase experience and get the most out of his cult members. The game needs a higher top speed, as well as extra variety in the mission department. But the game does not deliver on any of the innovation and new ideas that the cult concept can support. The experience is well suited for newcomers to the genre but makes little effort to tweak its core ideas. Honey, I Joined a Cult makes it clear that Sole Survivor Games are good at creating a competent management title, but I really want to see them try to add a twist to the formula in coming projects.
Honey, I Joined A Cult is a bright and colourful devourer of free time. Like a real cult, untangling yourself from Sole Survivor’s phenomenal debut proves very difficult thanks to some in-depth customisation and role-playing systems.
Honey, I Joined a Cult has multiple components, and they all work well together. Its customization options add a layer of replayability that isn't often found in management sims. However, it the well will run dry for some.
Honey I joined a Cult is a Base Building game like no other. Its mechanics are very familiare but the outcomes and the silliness that come with them are a guaranteed laugh.
A nice idea for a management sim that is partly hindered by a too much guided gameplay and a distinctive lack of originality in the basic gameplay.
Basically a good, traditional management strategy, with decent community development, but it starts to become stereotyped quite quickly and you can miss some more excitement and gradation. Basically, the threat is negligible, a little skill is enough and everything works without any major problems.
With a top-down perspective and simple graphics, Sole Survivor Games' tycoon is reminiscent of good old Zelda, but with a wide range of strategic options, it's closer to Prison Architect and plays like it. It's a shame that the game quickly exhausts its initially interesting potential and unusual theme. [Issue#325]
