Carrion
Most games task you with killing a monster. In Carrion, a side-scrolling action-platformer, you are the monster. Though it’s at times sickening, even disturbing—you play as a giant mass of flesh and devour humans without a second’s hesitation—there’s an air of grace to the way your grotesque mass rolls and slides through the game’s horror-inspired setting, extending tentacles to all corners of the room to flick switches or tear down grates in your way.
Playtime: 4.5 hours
