No Rapture? Doomsday cult PC game Join Us offers an alternative

"Join Us" is an upcoming PC game that simulates the experience of being part of a doomsday cult. Scheduled for release in 2026, the game allows players to prepare for the apocalypse in a unique and entertaining way. The game's premise centers around a fictional cult that believes the world will end, and players must manage resources, recruit new members, and make difficult decisions to ensure the cult's survival. The game aims to provide an alternative to the traditional "rapture" narrative often associated with doomsday cults, offering a more lighthearted and interactive approach to the subject matter. While the game's tone may be playful, it also explores the complexities and challenges of being part of a doomsday cult, including the moral dilemmas and social dynamics that can arise in such a setting. The game's developers have stated that they aim to create a thought-provoking experience that challenges players' perceptions of cults and the human condition.
