Nintendo Hard: Similar to Pacify, playing in single player means you're one person doing the work of four players, and if you get incapacitated it's immediate game over as there's no one around to revive you.Neck Snap: If Sam, the threat of the Town map, catches you, he immediately snaps your neck and sends you to Hell, where you have to fend off a set amount of Ghouls before you can be brought back to the land of the living.Increasingly Lethal Enemy: It's a good idea to try to complete the banishing ritual sooner rather than later, as the minion demons in the area as well as the possessed boss (Anna, Molly, Zara, Sam, and Nathan) get progressively faster when they are on the hunt, and much much more resistant to the effects of the UV flashlights. ![]() The Evil Cripple demons in the Asylum and the crawling creatures in the Farmhouse also count, with the former taking the shape of hideous, wheelchair-bound inmates and the latter manifesting as macabre zombie-like entities, both instances being evil demonic creatures serving the Big Bad of the level they’re in. Humanoid Abomination: Anyone possessed becomes one of these, only getting worse and worse as time passes.Only certain books will be able to be cursed at any time, with more becoming available as the player or players burn the books available to them.

In the backstory established in the Town update, this happens to the residents of Mercy, the titular town, when they uncover a ritual to summon Azazel while mining and perform it under the misguided belief that it will bring prosperity to the mining colony.Demonic Possession: Tends to happen when high-ranking cultists keep on trying to summon Azazel without properly remembering the complete ritual.Cult: The player characters, as well as the poor sod possessed by Azazel, are all part of a cult of demon worshippers called the Watchers of Azazel.Luckily all maps have many of these scattered around. Combat Resuscitation: Can be done via First Aid kit.Now it is up to you (if playing solo) or your team (if playing co-op) of fellow cultists to exorcise Azazel from its host before it becomes too powerful, and drags you back to Hell with it.ĭespite its similar name, it has absolutely nothing to do with the movie Devour. Unfortunately, things don't go as planned, and Azazel ends up possessing said cult leader instead. ![]() There are five maps released so far, but at their basic level their concepts are all similar: a high-ranking cult leader has managed to find a way to summon the archdemon Azazel. ![]() ![]() Devour is a cooperative horror-survival game for groups of up to four players, published by Straight Back Games in January 2021.
