Gameplay[]
Aleister Crowly is arguably one of the most challenging explorers for pacifist/speedrun strategies. His companions are all Cultists, who can turn into dreaded Abominations at low Sanity. The cultists' perk depends on the consumption of coca leaves, which can inflict extra ailments. Luckily, Crowly's Occult Vision perk does assist in faster exploration on maps with stone circles.
Combat should be avoided at all costs for several reasons:
- Cultists are some of the weakest companions in the game.
- Crowly's only weapon is dynamite, which inflicts self-damage.
- The party only has red dice, making effective combos next to impossible.
How to Unlock[]
Finish every expedition in a game with positive Standing, ending in 3rd place or higher on Normal difficulty.
