Name variations: dismembering

Preferably not cases where this appears random and especially not cases where the mobs "explode" into a collection of severed limbs upon death.

Tagging with gore may be a good idea as well.

If this happens only when the characters die, then this is not applicable as it's simply a graphic death.

This tag does not imply wounds since the graphics may be limited to depicting severed limbs, but wounds are otherwise ignored.

The first Dismemberment video game was released in 1983.

Activision, Electronic Arts and SSI published most of these games.
