DEVOUR: THE CARNIVAL

About This Game

DEVOUR is a co-op horror survival game for 1-4 players. Stop possessed cultists before they drag you to hell. Run. Scream. Hide. Just don't get caught.

HAVE YOU GOT NERVES OF STEEL?1-4 player online co-op

Take control of up to 4 cult members in this unique online co-op experience where you must work together to stop possessed cultists dead set on taking you to hell with them.

Single player mode

For hardcore players only. In this mode, you'll be doing all the screaming yourself.

Challenging gameplay

No two DEVOUR playthroughs are ever the same. To stop the evil, you’ll need a focused team and perfect execution, with a single session lasting up to an hour.

CAN YOU BANISH EVIL TOGETHER?Each themed DEVOUR map not only brings a terrifying new manifestation of the goat demon Azazel, but also completely new environments to explore, items to collect, fiends to overcome, and forbidden rituals to perform.

Exorcise the demonically possessed

Your goal is to break Azazel's hold on the cultists. On each map, work together in a race against time to find key ritual items – some of which might be alive and unwilling - to complete the banishment.

Escalating difficulty

Each possessed cultist’s rage and speed increases as the game progresses, as does the number of fiends they spawn to stop you. Your only means of defence is your UV flashlight.

Replayability 

Locked doors, ritual objects and item spawns are randomized, ensuring that no two games are the same. 

What's more, DEVOUR's unpredictable AI ups the game, making you second guess each and every move.

Player progression

Players earn experience with each playthrough, increasing their Cult Rank and earning Ritual Tokens. These are used to unlock valuable Perks, which can mean the difference between living to banish another demon or an agonizing death.

Nightmare mode

Beat the game without breaking a sweat? Try Nightmare mode for the ultimate challenge.

Step Right Up!

The Carnival might be DEVOUR's most disturbing map yet, but it also expands our love of dark humour, a unifying trait amongst the members of our tiny development team. After the spine-tingling, gothic feel of our previous map The Manor, we also knew the time was right to return to our signature violent frights.

We considered a number of ideas for Kai's demon, but deep down, we probably always knew he'd be a clown. Kai was originally added as a playable character to provide balance to our group of quirky cultists: he adds playfulness, fun and just a touch of suppressed anger... We wanted all of this to be represented in the design of both the map and his demon form.

We truly love the end result and think the fun we all had with this map shines through in its quality and many details. From the hand crafted assets and small surprises built into a more responsive environment, to the dynamically gleeful sound design and fluid yet unpredictable AI behaviour, the Carnival is a terrifying, chaotic adventure that we hope makes you laugh as well as scream.

Lore and Gameplay

While working as a clown, Kai Rewiti was propelled into an insane and monstrous rage that saw him make helpless victims of a number of circus visitors and use their mutilated bodies to summon the demon Azazel.

In The Carnival, you'll avoid crazed wind up monkey toys while finding a way to collect the human eyes that Kai placed into creepy, roaming puppet dolls. Once collected, depositing the eyes into the fortune telling machine along with a coin will push forward map completion. Kai will hound you all the way, and like all good clowns, he has a few tricks up his sleeve...

Pug Pet

A bundle of squishy loyalty to tag along as you banish Azazel and his minions. Unlock this pet by beating The Carnival on hard or nightmare difficulty. Also available for purchase after the Halloween event has ended.
