Kult is an out-of-print collectible card game by Target Games and Heartbreaker Hobbies.[1]
Gameplay[]
The game is based on a role-playing game of the same name.[2]
Publication history[]
It was released in November 1995.[3] The game had one expansion released in July 1997, called Inferno.[4] It added 127 cards to the base set's 262.[3] According to The Duelist magazine, the expansion was announced as having 121 cards and 2 chase cards.[5]
Reception[]
Lucya Szachnowski reviewed Kult for Arcane magazine, rating it a 4 out of 10 overall.[6] Szachnowski comments that "If you like gruesome, macabre artwork you'll love the Kult CCG. Kult has a modern day horror background based on films like Hellraiser and Jacob's Ladder, and real-life occult belief systems such as the Qaballah."[6]
There was some controversy over the release of the game due to its graphic art.[3][7] However, Allen Varney noted that despite its "disturbing art" the game "isn't scary and has only tangential relation to Metropolis Ltd.s' Kult horror roleplaying game".[8] Varney also remarked the game was "excellent" and "easy to learn and plays great from the start."[8]
