Can You Change the Difficulty in Honey, I Joined a Cult?

Honey, I Joined a Cult isn’t necessarily a difficult game, but starting any new game can be tough if you’re not familiar with the gameplay. There’s no shame in starting on the easiest difficulty to get a hang of the game first; after all, you can always play the game again on a more difficult setting once your first playthrough is over.

Thankfully, Honey, I Joined a Cult doesn’t have just one difficulty setting, it has three (four, if you count Custom)! This game’s three main difficulty settings are Relaxed, Standard, and Challenging. In addition to these main settings, it also has a Custom setting that allows players to customize the game’s difficulty settings to their own preferences.
