I did hold that against breath of the wild because Zelda had never had that stuff and didn't need it to be good. I personally don't like the weapon degradation and the survival stuff but to hold that against the game is kind of unfair since it is a survival game at heart. This is the most severe of the issues present, but otherwise the gameplay generally feels a bit sluggish, and the actual act of climbing the Gods often feels like a chore, with movement not completely syncing properly with the controller input.

At multiple points during the journey, we got completely stuck within the environment to the point where a full reboot would be required. The Gods themselves look superb, and display a more sinister, macabre design when compared to the more mechanical look of the Colossi.Īside from this, the game suffers from a frustrating lack of polish. On a more positive note, the game's scale and artistic direction is impressive, especially considering the small size of the development team. In addition, the game utilises survival mechanics, with hunger, temperature, and stamina all affecting your ability to handle the harsh conditions.ĭespite the glaring fact that this is essentially Shadow of the Colossus 1.5, Praey for the Gods immediately feels like the lesser of the two. It largely follows the same structure, tasking you with traversing a frozen landscape to find and eliminate a number of large entities called 'Gods'.

Developed by No Matter Studios, the team has always been open about the game's stark similarities to Shadow of the Colossus, one of Sony's most iconic games. Praey for the Gods will no doubt look instantly familiar to PlayStation veterans.
