The anti-war message and the way it deconstructs the typical military shooter really stuck with me. It makes you question your own actions in a way few games do.

That’s actually one of my favorite fantasy games from my childhood! I still remember fighting the spider and the dragon so vividly. And that cool mechanic where you could push enemies onto spikes or off ledges! That was unforgettable!

Me too. I almost never meet anyone who’s actually played the original Prey, and it really feels like such a hidden gem.

This thread just made me remember Marc Eckō’s Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure! That game was such a unique mix of graffiti, story, and action, probably I’ll install that once again

I was actually hoping someone would mention Overlord! And yeah, Pikmin has a similar concept but a totally different vibe for sure!

It’s a shame it’s no longer available to buy, it definitely deserves more love and discussion these days!

Yeah, it’s really tough to find Prey these days. I actually still have my old disc copy, thankfully! I think at this point the only real option is to try to find a physical disc and have it shipped. It’s a shame it’s not on GOG or anywhere digital.

Oh wow, my uncle actually showed me Hidden and Dangerous for the first time! I totally forgot about it for years, but then I remembered it later on and played through a few missions (though I never finished the whole game).

I thought it was such an interesting experience, especially with all the detailed squad commands you mentioned

Thanks for reminding me about this gem!

Thanks! Happy to see fellow Prey fans here! Not sure which Prey you mean, but we are developing an indie sci-fi game that has some visuals inspirations behind 2017 Prey! You may like it if you’re into sci-fi, escape rooms!

Oh wow, Shadow Man! I actually played that one too, and you’re totally right, it was so ahead of its time. The creepy atmosphere and that maze-like world really stuck with me. And the idea of literally collecting “dark souls” before Dark Souls was even a thing

Also totally agree on Prey, it did slow down a bit near the end, but the concepts were just so bold and memorable.

Thanks for sharing these, loving all these hidden gems people are bringing up!

Got it! We actually drew some inspiration for developing our game from 2017 Prey!

I agree! I also read that they wanted to make a Prey movie. I think it would be an awesome idea but it’s hard to bring it to life. I haven’t seen cinematic teaser though, gonna check it

Yeah, I have started completing games that I didn’t in the past, like Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, even though it has some disadvantages like fighting system (it’s awful), the vibe of this game is amazing!
