Parasite Mutant is a Parasite Eve inspired survival horror RPG set in the distant future where a psionic agent investigates an abandoned island city filled with horrifying creatures.
In Parasite Mutant you explore a secluded island and battle enemies using an “Active Time Chain” combat system, combining classic Active Time Battle mechanics with a 3-segment chain system. Time your actions on each segment, decide whether to save energy or chain release, dodge enemy attacks, and launch strikes at the perfect moment. You’ll also solve puzzles throughout diverse environments while facing horrifying mutants.
The Parasite Mutant demo takes around 45 minutes to play through and really impresses with its semi-realistic Anime visual design, old school survival horror vibes and great monster design. The Active Time Chain combat system could maybe do with a little more finesse (you spend a lot of time running in circles waiting for your bars to charge), but it’s an interesting take on the genre and a great homage to Parasite Eve.
