What does "cult play" mean?Played in two and ran one this year:
- Blades in the Dark. We started in August 2022 and wrapped in 2023. About half of the ~30 sessions overall were in 2023. Blades was fun, and I wouldn’t mind giving it another try (as long as it doesn’t devolve into more cult play).
Cult is one of the crew types. We picked assassins, but we ended up involved with She Who Slays in Darkness, and we all got into it. It was fun, but I’d like the next Blades game I play to develop differently.What does "cult play" mean?

I didn't get that into the cult thing. My whisper character quietly pursued his own interests (mostly), and turned into a leviathan at the end.Cult is one of the crew types.

Since you’re not supposed to push the game in a specific direction, that presents something of a conundrum. Ideally, the game produces a range of experiences. That’s why I’d like to play again (to find out).
