Reviews

Praey for the Gods is a game that is inches away from being a new classic. It does many things very well, and it is an incredibly impressive achievement for a small team. If you have a tolerance for tedium to reach some brief high points, then Praey delivers, but newcomers might be best served by starting off with Shadow of the Colossus.

Worth Playing

The survival mechanics feel remarkably similar to Breath of the Wild, with item management and weapon degradation taking center stage. These are reasonably well implemented but are at odds with the otherwise minimal nature of the game. The devs would have perhaps been wise to focus more on polishing up the boss battles, as these are the true stars of the show.

Push Square

In Short: An utterly shameless clone of Shadow Of The Colossus that comes nowhere close to mirroring the same level of grandeur and ingenuity as Team Ico’s classic. Praey For The Gods attempts to do far too much with obviously limited resources and the end result is a buggy, frustrating chore that at no point comes too close to doing anything as well as Shadow Of The Colossus, let alone bettering it. Like a bad pub tribute band, its only real accomplishment is making you appreciate the original even more.
