Decarnation is a 2023 adventure video game developed by Atelier QDB and published by Shiro Unlimited for Windows and Switch.

Gameplay

Players control a down-on-her-luck Parisian cabaret dancer in 1990. As her career prospects sour, her self esteem and mental health follow. Following a lead that could restart her career, she becomes involved in a psychological horror story. Players must avoid monsters, play minigames, and solve puzzles. It features retro pixel art graphics reminiscent of the fourth generation of video game consoles.[1]

Development

France-based[2] studio Atelier QDB initially developed Decarnation in RPG Maker, but it was later ported to Unity.[3] Shiro Unlimited released it on Windows and Switch on May 31, 2023.[4]

Reception

On Metacritic, Decarnation received positive reviews on Windows and mixed reviews on Switch.[5] Gamezebo called it "incredibly thought-provoking" and praised the story.[1] Nintendo World Report enjoyed the pixel art, atmosphere, and monster design, but they criticized the minigames and puzzles, which they said hold it back from being a good game. They also felt Decarnation went on too long past the climax, which they said unnecessarily drew out the game for another hour.[6]
