The Goat is a wicked new ally that can join the holy Lamb in **LOCAL CO-OP**! Experience the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign, with one player inhabiting the role of the Lamb and the other taking on the mantle of the Goat! **How to Start Co-op Play** Simply plug in or connect a controller if you're playing on the same PC, and configure co-op in the pause menu to get started. Steam Remote Play is also enabled for those of you who are further away from each other - please note that you may run into issues with this, if both players are using a keyboard due to how Remote Play is set up. For best results without having to use a work around, please have at least 1 player using a controller. Enjoy new ways to interact with the world of Cult together - from fishing to cult chores and knucklebones, plus much more! Choose from a selection of corrupted weapons, tarot cards, curses, and relics as you embark on co-op crusades together to defeat all who stand in your way. ##### The Final Bishop Questline You have defeated them - now it is time to truly make them a part of your Cult. 10 in-game days after the Bishop relic quests, a Bishop will return to you with a quest. Complete these to cleanse them, unlock a new trait, and for a final reward from Narinder. ##### 21 New Traits For Your Followers This update brings with it a whopping **21 NEW traits** for you to expand your Cult following with! **Jerk Follower Change** We heard you loud and clear, these Followers are meant to be annoying, but not THIS annoying! To remove the 'Jerk' trait, you can either reassure, or bully them into submission. We'll leave the choice up to you... **Poet** Followers with this trait will never work, and instead choose to sit near the edge of the base, crafting poetry all day, with some special lines unique to each major boss you defeat. Make sure you have defeated the first boss to unlock this trait! **Cursed** Followers may acquire this grisly trait after being resurrected! They cannot perform any tasks, and have limited interactions. Cure them through the Medical Bay, or.. you know.. just let 'em be. What's the worse that could happen? **Community Requested Traits! Pettable, Polyamorous** Now you can shower love on ALL your Followers, no matter what they look like! Followers with the 'Pettable' trait will have the 'Pet' action in their radial wheels. Followers with the 'Polyamorous' trait will not be jealous if the Lamb gets married to other Followers. **...Plus, 17 other new traits!** Spy, Nightowl, Snorer, Drowsy, Catatonic, Inspired/Excited/Disturbed by Mission, Unlawful, Reformed/Scarred/ Hardened Criminal, Unhappily/Happily Married, Proud/Overwhelmed Parent, and Murderously Jealous Spouse. Phew! ##### Knucklebones Table & Nursery **Nursery Building** You may assign up to three babies in the Nursery, and you can build as many as you like. Babies placed in the Nursery will not be able to escape baby jail until they become adults. This is available in the Divine Inspiration Menu. **Knucklebones Building ** _[Truncated at 4000 characters — full notes: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1313140/view/4194619900942719485]_
