Cult of the Lamb is a beloved title here, and while it started out as a single-player experience, it recently received an update that brought a local co-op mode. Thank you for Unholy Alliance update, you can summon a new playable character, The Goat, so that a friend can help you in battle or on missions back to the cult.

Cult of the Lamb like a bad one Animal Crossing. You, playing as The Lamb, gather devout followers living in a village that you must take care of – but you must also go on crusades to fight the Bishops of the Old Faith, who sacrifice you to a false attempt to prevent a prediction. After you add a co-op player by selecting that option in the game’s menu, you and your friend (as The Goat) can both run around and interact around a shared screen. , as opposed to viewing in a split-screen view. . This is great for crusades, where you can fight enemies alongside each other. If your partner is wounded to the point of draining all of their hearts, you can tap them back by sacrificing one of your own.

from Cult of the Lamb there are post-game quests that involve replaying all the areas you’ve beaten before, multiplayer is a fun way to approach it, especially if you try everything harder for the next one runs. Adding a co-op player unlocks new tarot cards, relics and fleeces, too. Or you can start a new game and do it all from scratch. Multiplayer is a little more refined when it comes to cult management. Since you’re sharing a screen, interactions with followers can cause momentary interruptions to whatever the other player is doing. But a good time can still be had if you talk and have a little patience. – Cheyenne MacDonald, Weekend Editor
