COTL is bright, colourful and incredibly adorable with the art style (unique from many games in its genre).

While the gameplay aspect of this game isn't new to those of us used to playing dungeon crawler-esque games, Cult of the Lamb (COTL) brings a unique world-building and narrative experience to the genre.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you're like me (enjoying a good challenge but lost interest/energy when things become too tedious/grindy - hey! I'm a patient person, I swear), then you'll appreciate the difficulty system in COTL.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
All and all buy the game if its on sale, enjoy the fun gameplay, cool visuals and a great soundtrack, and for your sanity please avoid interacting with the fandom
