Ho-ho-ho!

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!

* 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
approves!47VFW

* 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?

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!

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