A Peep Into Futurity
TLDR: it bork, we soz As you may have seen, AK revamped the entire Cultist Simulator code base (to make it more stable, and to prep for BOOK OF HOURS), nearly had a nervous breakdown because coding is not what he likes best, released what we professionals call a 'buggy AF' update in March, and has since pushed a patch a week to put the fires out.

TLDR: boxed edition for sale from 31st May I took on too much assembling and shipping 500 Lady Afterwards boxes on my own. But lots of people still want one, I'm delighted to say. How to square this circle? BY MAKING YER MUM DO IT FOR YOU! (But, paying her a decent wage to do so, so she can buy tulip bulbs and wine, her two major expenses.) So we're releasing another 1,000 Lady Afterwards: Boxed Edition boxes for sale on Tuesday 31st May 2020 on our Etsy shop. Like we did with the original runs of the Tarot of the Hours, we'll release these boxes in tranches of 50-100 so my mother doesn't totally lose the plot. This means if you go to our shop and don't see any boxes available, don't worry! We'll restock every week - if you miss out one time, there'll be another batch of boxes available very soon. Hopefully this'll allow our teeny studio to provide boxes for everyone who wants one, without us having to stop doing all the other work we're doing on actual games and becoming a physical-first TRPG store. Woot.
TLDR: lots of it Read our latest blog for more news on our next game set in Cultist Simulator's universe, BOOK OF HOURS, and our upcoming series of live events set in the Secret Histories, The Locksmith's Dream. Or sit back and wait for card placement fixes. Enjoy your weekends!

Happy Friday, peeps! We've stopped doing our fortnightly sprint updates (please tell us in the comments if you'd like us to start doing them again), but we have lots of irons in the fire and I thought it's high time for me to give you an update. So here's what's coming up in the next chapter of Weather Factory: Still Not Doing the Visual Novel We Made Up In 2018.

Seize forbidden treasures. Summon alien gods. Feed on your disciples.
Cultist Simulator is a game of apocalypse and yearning from Alexis Kennedy, creator of Fallen London and Sunless Sea. Play as a seeker after unholy mysteries, in a 1920s-themed setting of hidden gods and secret histories. Perhaps you're looking for knowledge, or power, or beauty, or revenge. Perhaps you just want the colours beneath the skin of the world.
In this roguelike narrative card game, what you find may transform you forever. Every choice you make, from moment to moment, doesn't just advance the narrative - it also shapes it.
Become a scholar of the unseen arts. Search your dreams for sanity-twisting rituals. Craft tools and summon spirits. Indoctrinate innocents. Seize your place as the herald of a new age.
Key features:

Become a scholar of the unseen arts. Search your dreams for sanity-twisting rituals. Craft tools and summon spirits. Indoctrinate innocents. Seize your place as the herald of a new age.
Key features:
- Combine cards to tell your own story in a rich, Lovecraftian world of ambition, appetite and abomination. Corrupt your friends. Consume your enemies. There is never only one history.
- Found a cult, dedicated to the Red Grail, or the Witch-and-Sister, or the Forge of Days. Recruit Believers and promote them to Disciples to serve as burglars, researchers, cat's-paws. Use your disciples to keep you fed - or feed on your disciples.
- Unravel arcane, unacknowledged mysteries. Translate grimoires and glean their lore. Locate and pillage the Star Shattered Fane. Penetrate the realm of the Hours, and win a place in their service. Perhaps - if you are very cunning - you may even glimpse the Mansus.
- Outwit rivals, investigators and the increasingly suspicious Authorities. Your own altered Appetites may force you to act abominably, but your Cause must not be stopped.
- Transcend death with a story-driven legacy system. Perhaps your inheritors will complete the Rite of the Crucible Soul. Perhaps they'll find peace in a pleasing career. Perhaps they'll bring the Dawn.
