Horror In the CULT Desert! The Twisted Religion of SAGEBRUSH (Members Early Access & Ad-Free!)

Years after escaping a doomsday cult and its gruesome end, a young woman returns to the abandoned compound to reckon with her role in the cult's life and downfall. Along the way, we discover the twisted doctrines of Perfect Heaven and its leader, Father James.

Join us as we dive deep into this indie game's tragic narrative, unpack Father James' twisting of religion and misinterpretations of Scripture to suit his own purposes, and look at the real life apocalyptic cults that inspired Perfect Heaven.

⭐Gameplay is from Sagebrush. Directed by Nate Berens, Redact Games, 2018. Windows game.
