Cult of Lust

Cultists are mask-wearing eccentrics who work together to summon the realm of Lusst'ghaa and partake in the eternal pleasures promised within. You seek out your wife in hopes of freeing her from their clutches.

Disturbing Imagery

As you weave in and out of Lusst'ghaa, you encounter many disturbing monoliths and seemingly sentient idols. Most of these are simple set pieces, but a handful give you a solid jump scare if you snoop around too long.

Eccentric Manor

The Yelverton mansion is filled with perverse statues and artwork. While the sculptures outside are relatively tame, the ones within the manor depict grotesque fleshy unions and perverse sexual couplings, as befitting of a crazed cult.

Eerie Visuals

The mansion also houses some seemingly innocuous art blended in with their more obviously perverse pieces. A second glance, however, reveals that almost nothing within is what it seems.

Investigating the Mansion

There are puzzles and key items to find within Yelverton, but you spend the bulk of your time examining items within rooms, manipulating them to enjoy the detail or find a hidden clue.

Twisted World

Lusst'ghaa is a dark, unnerving world filled with flesh-like growths and ever-present roots and brambles. While the art aesthetic is similar in places, no two areas are alike, which gives the realm plenty of personality.

About Our Expert

Gabriel Zamora

Gabriel Zamora

Senior Writer, Software

In 2014, I began my career at PCMag as a freelancer. That blossomed into a full-time position in 2021, and I now review email marketing apps, mobile operating systems, web hosting services, streaming music platforms, and video games as a senior writer. I'm a graduate of Hunter College, a hard-core gamer, and an Apple enthusiast.

The Technology I Use

I play many video games in my spare time, especially on my gaming rig, which is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 GPU, and 16GB of RAM. The Nintendo Switch 2 also sees a lot of action thanks to its backward compatibility, but I'll also occasionally hop on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. 

I'm currently using an iPhone 15 Pro Max, coupled with the Apple AirPods Max that my brother gifted me for Christmas, to listen to music or podcasts on the go. That said, I always carry my iPad Mini with me. The tablet line has served as my faithful drawing canvas for years, and is the one piece of tech I upgrade whenever I can. Paired with an inexpensive Wacom Bamboo Duo stylus, I have a compact, reliable, and convenient doodling set to keep me busy during long commutes across the Big Apple.

Cooking is my dearest passion next to gaming, and I embrace any tech that makes modern cookery a little easier. I discovered the Paprika Recipe Manager during my stint as a chef at Google HQ and fell in love with its simple yet feature-packed toolset. It makes saving and editing online recipes a cinch, and having easy access to them on my phone is a tremendous convenience.
