Played a bunch more Cultist Simulator. Got further again and managed to summon my first otherwordly being, which came just in time to help deal with all of the evidence that had been gathered against me. I did end up dying though, I think two more times. The one after that I actually "won", though only because I stopped being a cultist entirely, which wasn't much of a victory.
I'm still having a lot of fun, but the bad parts have become more apparent. For one, the game is quite grindy. You can upgrade your base resources, but it takes quite a while and is annoying to do every time you die, but not doing it severely limits you and just increases the chance you'll die sooner. I don't mind that much because I'm playing on my phone, so I can do it in little bits at a time, but I don't think I'd have the patience if I was playing it on a PC.
Furthermore, there are quite a few times where I only have a second, or even a fraction of a second, between a slot opening up and needing to put a new resource in before it expires. This means that I've taken to pausing the game pretty much any time a slot is finished, but that just means that I just keep pausing to take care of one thing, then unpausing and waiting for the next one to finish, then pausing again, which isn't great for the flow of the game.
Though I can use the little downtime each time to sort my resources, because look at this insanity (I'd add a spoiler if I thought you could actually make out anything):
There's so many of them and I don't even have that much here yet. Here playing on a phone is a downside because I can't really have all the resources on the screen at once while still being able to accurately press the right ones. I already frequently mispress, which closes the slot I have opened, which is really annoying when I do it on the fourth resource to add and I have to start all over again.
All in all, I'm still having fun and there's still plenty left to discover.
I won! Cool concept, but it's not very smooth.

Just stumbled over a Google Earth version of Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? and thought this might be something for @WoodenSaucer
