Creative Cult: what players think of new games

# Creative Cult > Creative Cult is a players-first games publication. It follows how players receive new games: the daily share of player reviews that recommend each one, and what players praise and criticise, read from their own reviews. It keeps a release calendar and monthly best-of lists ranked by players, and never uses critic scores or press coverage. Every figure carries its date and source. Creative Cult also runs player research for game studios. Each game page has a Markdown version at the same address plus .md, and /llms-full.txt holds every game page in full. ## Games - [Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse](https://creativecult.digital/games/castlevania-belmonts-curse.md): 66% of 2,285 player reviews recommend it (as of 16 October). The first new 2D Castlevania in years follows Trevor Belmont’s daughter Rose through a burning Paris, and most of its launch-week reviews recommend it despite a rough technical start. - [Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2](https://creativecult.digital/games/warhammer-40000-boltgun-2.md): 95% of 293 player reviews recommend it (as of 16 October).

The Ghostrunner studio’s first-person soulslike, set in a plague-ridden Napoleonic Europe, won over most of the players who reviewed it on launch day. - [Planet Zoo 2](https://creativecult.digital/games/planet-zoo-2.md): 66% of 2,556 player reviews recommend it (as of 16 October). Frontier’s zoo sequel adds flying birds and aquariums, and its most helpful launch-day reviews split almost evenly between delight at the new tools and frustration with bugs. - [Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen](https://creativecult.digital/games/dragons-dogma-2-dark-arisen.md): 89% of 1,150 player reviews recommend it (as of
