About Cult of Personality

Cult of Personality is social deception game for 2-8 players that bends the rules of what players can see, do, and hear... In life, and death!

Your cult's goals are to complete a forbidden ritual and summon your deity to bring about the end times! However, some of your would be cultist pals have been disillusioned from your cult's enchantment, and will do everything in their power - especially cold-blooded murder - to stop you!

Now with Multiple Gamemodes!

The Ritual


For 5-8 players, The Ritual is a classic social deception mode with some twists! You play as a Cultist - working together with your Cult to complete the ritual, or a secretly selected Defector - using deception, combat, and the power of possession to stop them!

Trials
to complete the ritual, you'll be tasked with group "trials" that must be completed by working together. Complete the trials (involving the occasional blood sacrifice), then finish the ritual in darkest depth of the castle.

Combat
A simple but effective directional combat system takes the place of voting and Insta-kill in Cult of Personality. Defectors must catch Cultists unaware for the kill, and if you're suspicious that one of your fellow cultists isn't devoted to the cause, take action and attack!

Possession
The game doesn't end once you enter the great beyond! As a ghost, you can possess objects and NPCs around the map to help complete the ritual, or kill the remaining Cultists to stop it. As a Defector you can even possess living players; making them attack peers, or sabotage the ritual to cast doubt on their allegiance...

Hide & Seek


For 2-4 players, Hide and Seek is a less socially intense arcade mode. Players take turns being the seeker, while the rest of the lobby hides. The seeker must find (and kill) all the hiders before the timer runs out. If they manage to kill everyone, they win the round. If not, all the hiders win. The first player to reach a score limit wins the game!

Other Features
  • light-based Visibility - In fire or torchlight, player color and names are visible, but stray into the darkness, and only silhouettes can be seen. Anonymity is a Defector's biggest strength, and keeping the mansion dark can be vital for their success.
  • Room-based proximity voice/text chat - Information and debate are key to unmasking Defectors, but stray too far and your cries for help may go unanswered...

Extremely fun with a group! The game is impressively mechanically deep, and it really makes you feel like a cultist as you tell others to "Stay away, I can't control myself." It had plenty of tense moments as you hurry to complete the ritual before the cultists can respawn, while managing your sanity and keeping a lookout for defectors. The tutorial is missing a few elements, and it doesn't seem to be under development anymore, but still a high reccomend. Plus it's free!

I love how the mechanics build a scenario where you can almost never trust anyone. There's a lot more uncertainty than in other hidden role games. Even innocent players can be a threat if you get caught in the wrong light. And the ghost system is really well done, allowing you to haunt friends, and or have something to do even when you've been killed.

This game brings the primal killer out of me regardless of if I'm traitor or not. The presentation is perfect, and the choice to have the Heavy attack is a rock is a stroke of genius, it feels very primal and desperate. And the feeling of descending on someone who you just brained with a rock like a rabid animal is such a rush. 10/10 would exercise my Cain instinct again.

thsi is a great game great conept fun with friends but theres 1 problem there are 0 people online and its pretty sad bec its a great game
Not recommended Jun 26, 2026
Well, wanted to give it a try as a solo player and the game had a whopping 0 player currently active. It's only playable if you have a group of friends to jump in, but sadly alone impossible. Even the discord server had like 3-4 message in this YEAR, its by far the most empty game I've ever found in the marked. Altough sad, because the concept looks incredibly fun and well made, maybe in the far future one streamer will pick this one up and give it the deserved fame like Among Us was lucky with xQc.
