All that’s really conveyed is that you’re a massive, mutated, and deadly monster seeking to contaminate and escape a vast lab facility. Rather, the game favors immersing players with its dark, thick sense of atmosphere, charming pixel art, chilling music, and subtle bits of visual storytelling. Overall, though, Carrion offers a uniquely fun - and slightly disturbing - gameplay experience.įor the most part, Carrion is light on an in-your-face narrative or cinematic bombast. With that said, there are a few duller moments and ambiguities that hold back this otherwise amusing horror romp. Then you’ll wonder if there’s something wrong with you for getting such a kick out of this. You’ll find it endlessly satisfying to effortlessly rip doors from their hinges, throw things around, and gruesomely devour helpless, shrieking victims. And it’s this off-the-wall feature that serves as the crux of the game’s enjoyment. Phobia taps into a very visceral sensibility with Carrion ’s fluid, action-based mechanics, which are both simple and fun to execute. Accurately described as “reverse-horror,” it's a violent slaughter-fest from start to finish, laced with Metroidvania-style exploration and satisfying combat that involves eating and tossing around foes.
If you’ve ever wondered what it'd be like to be the creature from Alien - or a comparably large, grotesque monster from a horror flick - Carrion may be the game for you. By Stephen LaGioia, posted on 04 August 2020 / 2,318 Views
