Also known as the "smash every mug you see lest it grow legs and eat your face" game

I also commissioned Deyvarah to make a companion piece of this, of yours truly floating around in space, probably about to be murdered by some Eldritch horrors. Check it out!

Okay, but Prey (2017) is actually really compelling
I'm still not sure why they didn't call it
System Shock 3

Or SpaceShock

Or Not-Really-Bio-Shock

And the fact I'm putting it next to those games should give you an idea how highly I think of it



It's one of those...some call them "immersive sims", but I like the term "shenaningan game"

Because it's at its best when you can survey a scenario and think "what shenaningans can I do here?"

Yeah, I could just shoot that alien in the face with a shotgun

But what if I
- transform into a mug
- sneakily roll behind them
- activate the turret that's there
- freeze them in place with my glue gun so they're helpless as the turret guns them down?

Shenanigans!
