PC Games of the Week: Katamari from Space, Planet Zoo 2 and Napoleon's Body Horror

TVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents PC Games of the Week: Katamari from Space, Planet Zoo 2 and Napoleon's Body Horror.

The Rock Paper Shotgun author played Carrion the night before - and promptly Rolla makes it onto the list of this week's overview: not a lab, but an entire city through which you roll as a tentacle ball and devour everything like a Katamari. Alongside the gooey mix, this week also lands Planet Zoo 2 and a Soulslike that crosses the Napoleonic era with body horror.

Rolla: Tentacle Katamari with Carrion Vibe

The parallel to Carrion is by design in Rolla. The game makes the list because the author wishes for more games where you take on the role of a malevolent, human-eating blob of goo. You control a ball of tentacles that rolls up a city and collects everything that comes within reach of its grasping arms.

Planet Zoo 2: Reserve Instead of Animal Trade

On Tuesday, October 13, the sequel launches and, according to Rock Paper Shotgun, leaves behind the commercial animal-trade angle of the first installment. Instead, you take over a nature reserve - complete with the option to build aquariums and aviaries for your animal inhabitants.

Valor Mortis: Napoleon, Body Horror and First-Person Soulslike

Valor Mortis delivers arguably the most unusual setting of the week: Napoleonic era, plus a hefty dose of body horror, wrapped in a Soulslike formula - this time from the first-person perspective. RPS author James announces his detailed review for the day of release.

The complete weekly overview with all three titles and many more releases can be found at Rock Paper Shotgun.
