Anyone have any recommendations?

There's a game by the name "Cult", an old, very low-fi indie game. The lone developer was Israeli, that's all I remember. The game is set up as you being an investigator infiltrating a cult building and trying to resolve a hostage situation... or some such.

 

The Dead Space trilogy involved a cult as a major plot element (a very unsubtle satire on Scientology).

 

Come to think of it, cults sound like a very common horror trope.

Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of Earth

 

That's a great game.

The third and fourth Elder Scrolls games have cults factor quite heavily into the main plot.

The Taris outcasts could be seen as a cult... And there's probably other Star Wars games that have cults. Jedi Outcast's Sith cult, for example. The Old Republic has a cult. It's mostly all Sith cults anyway.

 

Off the top of my head, I'm also thinking of Tomb Raider, the Fallout series and Vampire: Bloodlines.
