Hey BELOVEDS! Our Dancer DLC is now LIVE! Weve released it with a whole bunch of free updates to the main game, so all in all the update adds an extra ~30% content (from ~72k words to ~95k words, now). So, er, its quite a big release. Anyone who owns Perpetual Edition gets the update automatically and for free. Anyone who owns the normal edition of the game, dont fret! It only costs a measly $2.99 / 2.50 / 2.39.

DANCER DLC: WHATS IT ALL ABOUT, EH

In the occult cabaret that calls itself the Ecdysis Club, the distinction between pleasure and pain is as delicate and essential as the human skin. It is all that keeps us from making the very worst mistakes. Pursue a career as a Dancer at the Club. Determine which parts of yourself to surrender. Cross oceans in pursuit of the ancient rites that beat in the Wood. Consider the ascensions that open to you. Choose carefully.
The DLC includes:
Rise to unearthly fame as the Dancer, employed at the infamous Gaiety Theatre, Ecdysis Club or in some of the more exclusive city parlours.
Explore a trinity of insights into the powers of Heart, Moth, and those who came before. Realise your true form, and perhaps even tempt one of the enigmatic Ligeians to the Dance.
Some dances can only be performed in far places, and some cannot be performed in human shape. It also brings with it a host of new achievements and lore, of course. But NO SPOILERS!

HOW DO I ACTUALLY FIND THE DANCER CONTENT IN-GAME?

There are a few ways! Firstly, to check if you have the Dancer DLC installed, check if you have the DLC_DANCER_dancer_legacy.json file. On Windows, it'll be in [install folder]\cultistsimulator_Data\StreamingAssets\content\core\legacies On Macs, it'll be in [install folder]\Contents\Resources\Data\StreamingAssets\content\core\legacies On Linux, it'll be in [install folder]CS_Data\StreamingAssets\content\core\legacies Once you know youve got it, you have two ways to find your new content in-game: Begin the game with the Dancer legacy. This will always be available if you win a minor work victory at Glover and Glover, and sometimes be available otherwise anyway. Pursue the new Ascensions without being a Dancer, by finding Sulochana and speaking with her at the Ecdysis Club about your current Desire.

GIMME THAT SWEET, SWEET FREE STUFF

All righty! Weve added:
Followers now learn from their mistakes. Its much safer to send them on Expeditions, and though theyll still die if they injured enough.
What could go wrong with workplace relationships when your office is an occult society dedicated to bringing the apocalypse? Court your cultists and date your disciples. It probably wont end disastrously.
Mistreating NPCs now risks turning them against you and attempting to win the game faster than you can.
A smorgasbord of UI/UX improvements based on feedback since launch. Snap-to-grid cards, double-click card placement, intelligent card stacking now nobody should get RSI. Yay!

ANYTHING ELSE THATS FUN?

Yes! Firstly, you can download A Beginners Guide to Cultist Simulator, a glimpse into the notebook of an occultist figuring their own way through to the House. Its absolutely not comprehensive: its just fun, and I updated it to include info on the Dancer now thats live. Finally, were also on SALE for 48 hours on Steam, Humble and GOG as part of release! The base games now 25% off, if you know any would-be acolytes who just havent quite gotten around to buying the game yet. Hope you like all the new updates! We feel its a much fuller, sparkly game now, so fingers crossed you agree. If you want to help us, shout about this DLC/the updates/the sale, and stay tuned for more DLC later down the line. In the meantime, you can follow our plans and progress via our roadmap.
