If you're looking for something new—and a little strange—to play on mobile, Cultist Simulator is free right now on the Epic Games Store. From June 26 through July 3, 2025, players can grab the card-based narrative roguelike at no cost via the Epic Games Store app on Android globally and on iOS within the European Union. Just a heads-up: availability may vary by region.
Cultist Simulator Is Free on Epic Games Store
Learn the Rules by Breaking Them
Released by Weather Factory, Cultist Simulator throws you straight into a mysterious world with no tutorial and minimal guidance. It’s a roguelike card game built around discovery, where you’re expected to experiment, fail, and try again. At first, you’re simply dragging and dropping cards onto a virtual tabletop. But as you keep playing, things start to unravel—literally.
Every action you take can trigger events, unlock new storylines, or spiral you deeper into the occult. There’s no hand-holding here. Instead, the game leans into its complexity, asking you to piece together how things work and what’s really going on in its shadowy world.
Summon Spirits, Start Cults, Lose Your Mind
Set in a 1920s-inspired world full of secret societies, forbidden texts, and ancient powers, Cultist Simulator blends cosmic horror with emergent storytelling. You're not playing as a defined character—you’re shaping a path, deciding whether to seek forbidden knowledge, summon otherworldly entities, or build a cult of loyal (or doomed) followers.
It’s all driven by the cards you collect and combine. These cards represent actions, people, ideas, and resources. The choices you make with them determine what kind of story unfolds. One run might end in enlightenment. Another might end in madness.
Mobile Gaming with a Twist
The mobile version of Cultist Simulator keeps the full experience intact. It’s the same game that gained a cult following on PC, now playable on the go. Whether you're familiar with the game or new to it, this free week is a great opportunity to try it out—especially since the only price is your time (and maybe your sanity).
You’ll need the Epic Games Store mobile app to download it. Android users around the world can get it now, while iOS players will need to be in the EU. If you’re not seeing it in your region, it might not be supported there.
