The storytelling in Decarnation is both intimate and unsettling, drawing heavily on the aesthetics and narrative styles reminiscent of David Lynch’s surrealism and Junji Ito’s horror.

A major highlight of Decarnation is its soundtrack, composed by Akira Yamaoka, whose work is legendary for its atmospheric contributions to the Silent Hill series.

this is a really good game. gameplay is fun. it is not an action game but the puzzles and quick time events are engaging. graphics and sound are very immersive. i bonded with the main character Gloria. it reminded me of the point-and-click games i used to play a lot from the 90s. havent played a game in this genre in a while, so this was a warm welcome.

I love the art style and character design, and the music is nice in places.
