The Church in the Darkness
No one is forced to join a cult. It welcomes you. It understands you. It envelops you until the words become more than truth—they make you whole.
In the late 1970s, the charismatic Isaac and Rebecca Walker lead the Collective Justice Mission. Labeled radicals and feeling persecuted by the US government, they relocate their followers to the one place they believe they can create a socialist utopia: the jungles of South America. There they build Freedom Town. But relatives left behind in the US become worried: what exactly is going on at this compound in the jungle?
You play as Vic, an ex-law enforcement officer who has snuck into Freedom Town to check on their nephew, Alex. Whether you choose stealth or violence, you must infiltrate the commune, find out what’s going on within, and locate your nephew, before it’s too late.
The dynamic story of The Church in the Darkness changes every time you play. It's up to you to explore Freedom Town, figure out the shifting personalities and motivations of the cult leaders, and decide what to do.
What ending will you get? Will you get Alex out, whether he wants to go with you or not? Will you confront the cult leaders? Will you join the cult?
Unlock every ending for each scenario by trying different play styles or making different choices.
Multiple ways to play: Avoid detection completely, taking out guards and civilians non-lethally, or kill anyone who gets in your way.

It should be a "maybe".
The game has a very interesting premise and gameplay in that one can unlock different endings and items each time you play but the character's movement, actions and camera are such a pain to control. It's actually an understatement.
You'd think the game had been created in the early 2000s for how clunky it is to move around (and to be honest some games from way back actually handle it better than this), but if you're a masochist like me, you'll put up with it and keep playing till completion – which undoubtedly I'm no where near as of yet.
This game could pass with flying colours, were it not for such poor controls. As it stands, only buy on sale.

I only bought this game just because my sis tried to join a cult.

It's a pretty good game if you don't have anything else to do or if you just wanna goof off. The OST is pretty god damn good, the voice acting is really good for the leaders and for the rest of the people it's pretty alright. The graphics are pretty avarage but it still looks really pretty. The art is well made and with a really nice artstyle and well designed characters. The story is pretty interesting but can get boring at some points.
Basically it's a simple game when you just feel like playing a quick game or doing something dumb. I'd give it a 7/10.
