Prey Reviews
Prey is not a perfect game, but the excellent world building, characters, and stories kept me invested enough to see the credits role.
Prey is one of thoe Sci Fi games which tells the familiar story of an astronaut imprisoned in a spaceship and should fight aliens. The game has some engaging elements which makes you want to finish the game. If you are looking for a good Sci Fi game, Prey is for you.

Prey is a game that focuses on looting and discovering items. But these giant cockroaches called mimics are a serious problem. The horror elements never should’ve been added to a game with this style of gameplay. The level design is not as good as what we’ve seen in Dishonored and The enemies and the battles even worse. The role-playing elements and the player’s choices are still fun but sadly Arkane studios really didn’t make it this time.

Prey presented the same key features that were a major reason for the success of previous Arkane studio games, such as absolute freedom in the style of gameplay, the list of skills with many choices, a world that is perfectly designed and rich in detail and hours of to roam and remunerative exploration, but there are other elements that have not been given the same quality like combat, the story that has lost its luster in the middle of the events, also suffering the futility of the stealth system or the existence of significant differences between the enemy factions.

Prey is an outstanding example both as a sci-fi thriller and an FPS. Talos 1 tells its own story as players explore and immerse you.
Prey is Arkane Studios' best work to date, and is a thrilling sci-fi journey into a world of question and uncertainty.
Exploration, puzzle solving, combat, lore, story twists: Prey has it all!
Prey managed to bring a very unique science fiction escapade and a lot of fresh ideas at the same time which makes it stands out over other games for the time being.

Prey is a great game with great gameplay mechanics and a decent scenario. It plays like Deus Ex and Dishonored with some pros and cons. I think, it's Arkane Studios' best game so far.

Prey is a divisive game that many will adore while others will be quick to bash. Prey is not a shooting game with fast paced action, a bevy of guns and bullet sponge enemies. It's a slow burn, one that rewards thoroughness and efficiency.
Prey's strong start, captivating story, fantastic atmosphere and satisfying ending makes it one of the must play games. Gamers who are looking for a 15 to 20 hours of adventure shouldn't miss this one.

Prey is simply exceptional. The story is twisting and confusing in a way that is exciting, and it makes you crave the next scene. The survival-horror approach to combat and gameplay creates the right amount of tension, while the crafting elements and ability to use almost anything in the world allows for emergent solutions thanks to the different approaches to almost every situation. Most of the flaws are technical in nature, and they're not enough to severely impact the game, so Prey earns its place as one of the hallmarks of this platform generation.
As a whole Prey is a very big game. Difficult to catalog despite all its influences. Full of possibilities, with a sublime sci-fi atmosphere and, above all, with a lot of personality.

Prey is a game that borrows strongly from its predecessors in the genre, mashes up several play styles with heavy exploration and delivers a surprisingly satisfying experience.
If you aren't overly familiar with some of the immersive sims that are out there right now, you'll be in for a heck of a ride. There are precious few games right now which do what Prey is trying to do, preserving the core single-player FPS experience for those who don't want to just blast everything in sight. I wouldn't say Prey is the thinking man's FPS, but it's certainly got plenty of substance. In the absence of BioShock 3, this is going to be as good as it gets.
After that, it’s just a gunfight.
Clocking in at around 20 hours, Prey is well worth checking out even if you're not a fan of horror or sci-fi. It might not be wholly original, but that doesn't make it any less fun.
It's not a new story, but it's told really well and that makes up for a lot. Not the hacking though.
Despite its issues, Prey is an enjoyable first-person shooter which begs you to explore its wonderfully crafted and at times awe-inspiring world.
In the end, Prey is a really, really good game. I’d even venture that it’s borderline great. While I can and will ding it a bit for the annoyance of repetitive returns to previous locations and for the overly annoying mimics (particularly from an aural standpoint), there is so much to like, so much to discover, so much to learn that I would put Prey up there as one of the best games of the year so far and that’s some pretty impressive company.
