KULT: The Temple of Flying Saucers is a graphic adventure game, released in 1989 by Exxos. The American version was sold under the title Chamber of the Sci-Mutant Priestess.

Set in a post-apocalyptic environment where Raven, a Tuner (member of a race which possesses psy-powers), is caught prisoner in the temple of the Protozorqs (physical mutants), and must find his girlfriend, who was also kidnapped, to finally proceed to escape with her. Raven is aware that his quest won't be simple since the Protozorqs, armed with "zapsticks", will gladly kill him if he does anything they dislike.

A dialog of choices (Amiga)
