Developer Phobia Game Studio is uncompromising in its approach to making Carrion as true to this fantasy as possible, and it makes for a game unlike any I’ve played thanks to a collection of truly excellent moments. It’s a power fantasy that has you going an utter rampage through an underground facility, terrorizing both armed and unarmed inhabitants along the way. Abut the gameįor anyone who’s ever watched a monster movie and thought “Hey, it would be pretty cool to be that monster,” the premise of Carrion is immediately appealing. And there’s nothing like taking control of a human like the thing from… well, The Thing… and clearing out a room of unsuspecting humans. Watching the creature grow and become more grotesque as power-ups are collected is rewarding as hell. There’s something undeniably fun about scrambling up an elevator shaft, crashing through a door, and making the stupid science on the other side scream and crap their pants. Though none of them are enough to keep me from recommending to anyone that’s interested, they will keep me from putting this one on my Favorites list. From the total lack of a map to the difficulty navigating the bigger forms of the monster through the many, many tight passages, minor problems abound with this one. There are plenty of small annoyances that keep me from singing this games praises from the hilltops, however.
