Gaming: Cult Of The Lamb's Woolhaven Dlc Is Everything I Could've Wanted...

Woolhaven is exactly what I want to see for Cult of the Lamb.

I do not know what Massive Monster puts into Cult of the Lamb. You'd think after over 50 hours, completing the game, and doing absolutely everything possible, I'd get tired and move on. But no, as it turns out, I can never get enough of collecting and fighting little critters. So you can probably imagine just how normal my reaction was when I got wind of the new Woolhaven DLC.

You're introduced to a new cult figure, Yngya, and her dead lamb followers, who were massacred at their home at the base of the mountain and left to rot. They're not very happy with it and even less pleased with who's moved in, a wolf deity, Marchosias, who also comes with a bunch of new figurehead followers who you can defeat in battle and indoctrinate into your cult.

Tearing through the mountain in both the snowy top and the rot-filled underbelly is just as exciting as it is in any of the maps. But now with new enemies to fight and weapons to bonk them on the head with, whoever thought of the flail needs a raise—it feels like a whole new adventure. But I'm not here to convince anyone of how fun Woolhaven's combat is—it's more of the same, so of course it works. No, the best part of Woolhaven actually takes place back at your cult.

Walking into Woolhaven, you're met by a very helpful moleman named Gofernon, who immediately cements himself as one of the best characters I've ever had the pleasure of meeting by expanding your base camp. Yes, you heard me, Gofernon, alongside his mole pals, dig into the bottom of the map and create a whole new area for you to decorate and use. You can do this a couple more times until you get a new area which is almost the same size as your initial camp.

To say that this made my day is an understatement, for months I'd been packing my cult tightly together, trying to optimise space and efficiency while ensuring it still looked somewhat appealing, but now I had double the area to work with. And the first thing I did was move all my new farm pets in.

One of the other great perks of Woolhaven is the introduction of ranching. Now you can build a farmhouse and fence off a field to keep animals like Yakish, Cowish, Llamaish, and Turtleish. You can shear these for wool, butcher them for meat, or milk them for, well, milk. All of which are precious items which will come in handy when the winter frost sets in.

Managing your camp in Cult of the Lamb is a multitasking effort that I've always love
