About the story
In an alternate timeline where the Space Race accelerated after a failed Kennedy assassination, the TranStar Corporation operates Talos I, a research station orbiting the Moon. Morgan Yu, a scientist aboard the station, wakes to discover that three years of memories have been erased and a hostile alien species called the Typhon has broken containment, killing most of the crew. With the station in chaos and no clear account of what went wrong, Morgan must piece together the truth while deciding who and what to trust.

Critic Reviews
Kritiqal
By Nate KiernanPrey hasn’t been able to pick and choose its points of inspiration. While the games it lifts from are mechanically engaging, their thematic tensions have not held up as well, leaving Prey an inconsistent jumble of competing philosophies and narrative styles as it tries to recontextualize plot points which in hindsight were not as clever as we made them out to be.
Videospielkombinat
By WyzzlexIf you are a fan of BioShock and Dishonored, you will definitely love Prey. It offers great gameplay with a strong focus on the player's creativity and a compelling story.
SquareXO
By Rebecca StowThis psychological horror first-person shooter is set on the abandoned and desolate space station, Talos 1. Accompanied only by aggressive alien life, our protagonist Morgan (male/female depending on the player’s choice) is a marooned scientist suffering with complicated memory loss. Prey follows Morgan’s attempt to escape and prevent the alien Typhons from escaping with him.
Respawning
By Javier ReyerosI just got to a point where I didn’t want to invest any more time in this game and wanted to play something more exciting.
