The 'Sex Update' for 'Cult of the Lamb' Is a Good Sign for Horny Video Games

The pitch is straightforward: What if this video game had sex? Every game deserves a sex update, so the meme goes. In November, Cult of the Lamb, Massive Monster's adorable, animal-themed roguelike about building and maintaining a cult, got in on the action: "We will add sex to the game if we hit 300k followers by the end of the year," the game's official account tweeted, in the style of the meme's pseudo-horny forefathers. Video games have long served as an amorous playground. Some incorporate sex and romance directly into gameplay, as in BioWare's Dragon Age and Mass Effect games.
