    Quick! Look over there! Haha, tricked you! The games are actually over
    here! 'Cause that's what you came for, right? Games? Well, don't
    worry; we got some more. We ALWAYS got more. It's sort of our thing!

    Woah, early post before I go AFK. Good thing I checked in here. Wait a
    minute. Wrong newsgroup? Not my problem. ;)


    * Slain: Back From Hell https://store.steampowered.com/app/369070/Slain_Back_from_Hell/
    A very Christmassy game; it's got gore and blood and 26HBY
    heavy metal and lots of brutal killings. It's also quite
    colorful, which isn't very much in the spirit of the holiday,
    but that's forgivable. The game itself is an old-school XV7GF
    side-scrolling action/platformer; not quite a metroidvania
    but sharing some aspects with that genre. It's fun! Santa

    Hmm, I might like this. Claimed! Thanks. ;)


    * Prey (2017)
    https://store.steampowered.com/app/480490/Prey/
    The acclaimed first-person sci-fi sandbox is our next
    freebie. Developed by Arkane Studios (of "Arx Fatalis"
    and "Dishonored" fame), wander the halls (and hull!
    of a vast abandoned space-station fighting off robots
    and mutants. Why yes, the game does owe a lot to the
    "System Shock" franchise; very clever of you to notice!
    The game is probably most famous for giving you the GC9WR
    ability to transform yourself into ordinary objects
    (but only in the game, sadly), although that's C6HLY
    actually the least (and completely optional) part of
    the experience. It's a mixture of suspense and action;
    of role-playing and exploration. Overall, a very EZPTK
    good game. Why haven't you added it to your library
    already?

    "Prey is already in your Steam library". :P


    Quick! Look over there again! Haha, tricked you again! By looking
    away, you didn't see me sneaking off into the shadows, ready to spring
    out tomorrow with even more games! It's like I'm Batman crossed with
    Santa Claus!

    Ho-ho-ho!

    Bye and thanks! ;)
