10 Video Game Tutorials That Played Cruel Tricks On Players

After players select which version of protagonist Morgan Yu they’d like to play as, players begin sci-fi horror game Prey awakening in Morgan’s apartment, ready to begin another day of work. At this point, players are free to poke around their home, inspect their computer, and learn that they can pick up most objects.

When players do decide it’s time to take a helicopter to work, they’ll spend the proper portion of the tutorial participating in a series of tests. Here, players will learn how to complete tasks like moving boxes out of a circle, hiding behind a chair, jumping over a small obstacle, and completing a psychiatric assessment.

However, interactions between the observing scientists suggest that something isn’t quite right. And when a mimic disguised as the doctor’s coffee cup ambushes him, Prey pulls the rug from under the player’s feet.

Morgan once again wakes up in their apartment, but this time things are different. It’s revealed that everything players have just experienced has been a simulation. In reality, players have been part of an experiment on the Talos space station which has been overrun with aliens.

Setting up a grand mystery, it’s now up to players to uncover the truth.
