Carrion is a 2D side-scrolling game where you play as a globular, sinewy monster, trapped in an underground laboratory. You use your prehensile tendrils to move through space like an airborne virus, and unlock special abilities over the course of the game. The puzzles aren't particularly difficult but can be clever and satisfying to solve as you unlock more powers and take down meek, bipedal enemies.


What we like:
  • Short but fun game with no platforming
  • Unique power fantasy of being the apex predator
  • Clever puzzles
  • Satisfying combat mechanics
  • Variety of enemy types
What could be improved:
  • Combat not overly difficult
  • Limited story exposition
  • Abrupt ending

  • horror
  • reverse-horror
  • puzzle
  • pixel
  • gore
  • mech
  • metroidvania
  • combat
  • villain
  • stealth
  • maze
