CARRION

I didn't really like the controls. The tentacles make it look like they're pulling you along but it felt like the blob was just sliding around a little too effortlessly. It was really easy to get disoriented. I know it wouldn't really make sense for the tentacled mass to have a map but I got frustrated when I got lost and didn't feel like sliding my mass back (again and again... did I check that way?) through rooms of stuff I already broke and/or killed. I unlocked an ability to shoot a web, and then later got an ability to "dash" which... overwrote the web ability? I couldn't find a way to switch back and gave up. I played it through a game streaming service through 3 or 4 levels? I don't find my self interested at $20. I do think it's a neat project from Phobia and I do like seeing neat indie concepts with a Devolver's "D" on it.

I enjoyed the game immensely and it is well designed, there are no softlocks or stuff like that, but it is simply far too short. Getting 100% in the game only takes two and a half hours, and that's if you're slow and methodical about it. Putting up $20 for this game, almost $10 per hour, is ridiculous. I won't refund the game as I do think the developers have real talent and I want to support them, but it's simply not worth the price they're asking for.

If you want to feel like eldritch abomination this game is for you.

It was fun, but it got repetitive after a while due to the back tracking. A lot of the power ups were pointless because they were not required to complete the game. None of the achievements unlocked even after I completed all areas.

I was looking at this game for months, really loved the idea behind it and couldn't wait to get it and then I did!! The being the monster experience is awsome, chasing down humans and squeezin around is all good fun, but the map system... At this point I've played for 3.5 hours and out of those I think I've spent 2 hours trying to figure out where should I go next, it's AWFUL. I don't remember this happening to me since gaming in 90's. Honestly not sure if I'm going back to game cause it's frustrating as hell.
