How it feels

Playing CARRION feels like a relentless, gory rampage of empowerment as you evolve, stalk, and consume your captors through a tense, atmospheric facility.

What players say

Players call Carrion a reverse-horror metroidvania where the focus is on puzzles and backtracking, not action. The lack of a map makes navigation frustrating for many, and the controls become unwieldy at the largest size. It is short, around 4 to 6 hours, and players widely recommend buying it on sale.
