The collaborative cult simulation game "Worship" developed by Chasing Rats Games will be released on Steam on July 17 to release an early experience.After gaining high profile at the Summer PC Game Show and breaking through the Hundred Thousand Wishlist, In The Name of Evil Gods is ready to let loyal believers (and skeptics) experience its slanderous work that combines real-time unit manipulation, weird rituals and rude humor.
The game is inspired by Piquemin (but rewritten in blood). In "In the Name of Evil God", up to four players will be able to command groups of fanatical believers in a dark fantasy world where dedication is death.Lead your followers into battle, explore corrupt lands, and please the gods of your choice by offering sacrifices to the weak.
The game's unique ink-brush sketching art style combines absurd charm with disturbing violence, making every chaotic moment extremely visually impactful, with twisted and weird themes.Whether it’s firing your followers towards your enemies or using them as blood bags in the name of forgotten gods, every choice of yours is part of the divine path to the apocalyptic revelation.
