The Switzerland-based studio\u2019s indie horror game about performing colonoscopies is scheduled to release on December 23 for the PC (Steam).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Revenge Of The Colon, you play as a renowned gastroenterologist at the height of your profession. The story-driven game involves treating various patients over the course of a week.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com\/steam\/apps\/256986458\/movie480_vp9.webm?t=1701653413\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In each of the 5 chapters, you talk to a patient with colon issues and then use an endoscope to investigate further. The player navigates the patient\u2019s insides through the claustrophobic perspective of the endoscope, identifying and treating any issues they find. The endoscope is equipped with various specialized medical equipment. It can scan and identify contents found inside the patient\u2019s bowels and even remove parts with a laser.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001.jpg\" alt=\"A patient discusses their symptoms in Revenge Of The Colon\" class=\"wp-image-23707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-001-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Scanning the objects you find inside patients will help guide you to the appropriate treatment. For example, in one chapter the patient has an eating disorder where they consume non-food items. If one of these items becomes stuck in the intestinal wall, the procedure is to carefully remove it and stop the bleeding. It seems that you will also encounter parasites.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002.jpg\" alt=\"Removing a thumbtack in Revenge Of The Colon\" class=\"wp-image-23709\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231205-23702-002-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Revenge Of The Colon will feature multiple endings, with the outcome depending on how the game is played. The story starts off like a typical week in the life of the main character, but things soon take a strange turn. A patient complains of unusual symptoms and your examinations become nightmarish.
