And if you fail, the Old Ones will return to Earth. Graphics are fairly run-of-the-mill, mid-90s, third-person style. The cool thing about Prisoner that gives it a really different look (separating the men from the boys, so to speak) are the paintings dispensed as graphics to accompany backstory on bits given out by on various characters. These are on some wonderfully creepy paintings that anyone who has spent any time buried in the old horror comics of the 60s and earlier, ala Creepy, EC's Vault of Horror, and the venerable pre-Code Crypt of Terror, is going to recognize, as well as the correlative relationship between the use of that style and the mythos of Lovecraft's world (albeit sans the Mad Arab in this instance). The music is of an amazingly high quality for a game. This isn't to say that there's not plenty of good game music around; I've often found things I truly love in a number of games. |

| This also makes me wonder a bit in messenger a sort of chicken-or-the-egg kind of musing in relation to knock-off projects messenger based on the works of these sorts of authors. Is their stuff repeatedly used because of the fact that these belles-lettres are brilliant classics, or because there are no fees to pay messenger rights-wise, and no one to complain about the rewrites? One of the great mysteries of the universe, I suppose. But I digress. Prisoner does an excellent job of taking the basics of the Lovecraft Cthulhu mythos and weaving an entertaining and engrossing story, on top of an all-around well-put-together and fun game. What more could a gamer ask? The story in a nutshell: You are Lieutenant Ryan, a young officer working for the US Secret Service, assigned to serve with the Royal Navy on the eve of World War II. A powerful European adversary has discovered an ancient threat held trapped inside the ice of the South Pole. |
