Ratings and reviews

I missed Carrion on its initial release, and was pleasantly surprised it was on Play Pass with all the DLC. It really captures the vibe of The Thing and other similar body horror (especially when enemies with flamethrowers start showing up). The controls take a bit of getting used to, but there are many save points so it's not overly frustrating. There's also some environmental puzzle solving and creative ways to approach clearing rooms. Highly recommended!

I love this game, and I'm so stoked that it got a mobile port! More games need to follow in the steps of CARRION. As of this review, though, there's one major flaw with the app: it does not work in reverse landscape. This means your phone (maybe it's different on a tablet) must be in one orientation. Problem is I've had situations where my phone is much better in reverse landscape (like when attached to my controller). If this is fixed, it's instantly at 5 stars. Game itself is flawless!

I never even heard of this game until I saw it on Google Play, but it is addicting fun. It's like an action puzzle game where you also often have to be sneaky to take out threats. The controls take getting used to, but being an amorphous monster, you could say that a little awkward control is part of playing such a being. Save points are super plentiful, so you won't hurt much if you die here and there.
