Videogame collaborations seem to be getting increasingly common and increasingly random. Nicki Minaj in Call Of Duty? Fortnite skins based on Mexican comedy shows from the 1970s?Pentiment characters in mediaeval strategy Inkulinati?Okay, that last one makes sense. But now, a team-up between management gameCult Of The Lamband co-op survival gemDon’t Starve Togetherhas joined the small club of fun but sensible crossovers. Games about cults and starving stick together, you know, so both games are celebrating each other’s birthdays with free updates.

To mark its first anniversary, Cult Of The Lamb is getting a pretty substantial update that adds new music, decorations, and a follower, Webber, the wide-eyed spider from Don’t Starve. The update’s main attraction, however, is the new Penitence Mode that adds some survival elements - namely hunger and sleep gauges (for you personally; your cultists already had needs for you to take care of). Slap napping on your to-do list alongside indoctrinating animals.

Meanwhile, Don’t Starve Together is celebrating the series’ 10th birthday with an update that mainly adds lamb-themed cosmetics to the game, which I imagine makes main man Wilson even hungrier, though cosmetics might not inspire the same level of shear excitement. (Ba-bad Kaan, no more puns!) Regardless, the game was good enough to get ontoRPS readers’ best survive ‘em ups list.
