Amanda's Spring Thing 2023 Review of I Am Prey
"This is Joey's first game, and it’s been awesome to watch its progression on the forum. There’s a 'Survival Guide' which you should definitely read before playing. I admit my eyes got a little wide on reading it, because it is long and there are many non-standard actions and rules and I thought I might be lost while playing. But the game starts off gently enough, allowing you some time to get used to its format."
"I recommend this highly-- it's got the feel of a first-person video game while being a parser game, and that's quite an achievement. If you like large maps, cat-and-mouse setups, and treasure hunting while under the gun, this game is absolutely for you. Great job, Joey!!!"

Josh Gram's Spring Thing 2023 Review of I Am Prey
"I had expected it to be very videogamey, but the writing isn't half bad either and (depending how you play) there are a fair number of little story nuggets tucked away here and there.
But it is mostly about the game mechanics. And it's clearly supposed to be tense. But it only takes an undo (or a few of them) to get you back out of the places where you get yourself killed so it's not that bad. I did save several times but I never needed them."
"I suspect the manual is overly intimidating: think of it as a limited-parser hide-and-seek board game in a maze with lots of secret exits to find."
"I feel like there are still occasional rough spots, but it's a pretty good thriller digital board game, if you’re into that kind of thing."
