Carrion
Weird Games in 2020
While Carrion is certainly not as weird as Speaking Simulator, it definitely isn’t like many games out on the market. You take control of an unknown, big blob of a creature as it rampages throughout a lab, killing everyone that imprisoned it.
Announced during E3, it’s a twist on normal horror games. You don’t often take control of the monster you would be running from if you’re the protagonist of a conventional survival game. It would be like playing as Mr. X in Resident Evil 2 or the monster in Amnesia: The Dark Descent.
The creature you take control of also moves in such a way that can easily creep you out. It’s a mass of tentacles that latches onto every corner, every wall, and everyone it comes across as it literally consumes them. Sounds cheery.
Made by the aptly titled Phobia Game Studio and published by Devolver Digital, Carrion has no set release month but it’s expected to be out later in 2020 for PC and Xbox.
