Solid Shooter, Fun Story, Just the right amount of Blood, Entrails and Satisfaction
For the most part Prey accomplishes its goals. I found it to have a fun story line that kept me interested until the end. This was the first shooter I've played that was fronted by a Native American, that was kinda fun. Graphics left something to be desired but weren't terrible by any means.
Prey also provided a feature that allows for when you die, you go to an after life where you shot spirits with a bow and arrow. This was kinda cool in the sense you never truely died, you would just pop right back in as you left with evidently no real consequence. That was both cool and a draw back, in the sense that if you get stuck on a hard part there was no real restart, like run fast to get there again, die, restart run back, die, and repeat over and over again but to the same effect it eliminates a certain level of challenge that comes with dying and having to restart. They've eliminated any suspense in the sense, nothing can kill you.
Prey has some great imagery of just absolutely twisted, "I can't believe they did that" sort of stuff. Such as a school bus of dead children, your grandpa getting waxed and various other disturbing images.
All in all this game was very, very OK. It's worth looking into now considering the price is close to nothing. Definitely worth the playing time.
