System Shock meets "Neo Deco" in the best immersive sim yet. Prey sets the tone almost immediately with its confident inducing of paranoia that never lets up throughout. You're urged to fight and explore in ways most games don't allow aboard a space station so vast it can at times feel overwhelming. It's fortunate then that every location has history behind it, lived in and rich in lore as deep as you're willing to dive.

Prey screws with your head and loves doing so, and is bookended with so many memorable moments you need to experience firsthand. It's not often I end up thinking about a game long after completion but Prey deserves that kind of attention. And a particular song from a particular moment has been on repeat all day.
