If you want to buy things and build buildings in Cult of the Lamb, you will need to farm lots of wood, lots of stone, and lots of other things.
Cult of the Lamb deftly mixes roguelite dungeons with complex ‘colony’ management in the form of your cult and the cultists you need to keep happy. This involves building them everything they need, including buildings to work in, farms to work in, and houses to sleep in.
Of course, these buildings are not free. No – you will have to harvest and collect various resources. You’ll use them for construction, to trade with in-game NPCs, and to perform devious and miraculous rituals in your temple. Here are all the resources in the game and the best ways to get them.
