You have a set of around 30 objectives to complete, some of which can be completed by anyone, while others can only be completed by specific characters. Instead, you play as one of five different characters (including Riley Yu) each of whom has a different set of abilities. In the simulation, however, you don’t play as yourself. You’re ordered to run a simulation of a Typhon Infection of the Moon base, in order to collect “data” on why the station has recently gone dark. Instead, you’re a corporate spy working for a rival company aboard a small spacecraft orbiting the Moon. But you’re also not really doing either of those things. You’re still on the Moon, and you’re still fighting the Typhon infection. Trying to summarise the story highlights this. The result reminds me of that scene in Apollo 13 where the scientists build a device to fit a square carbon dioxide filter into a round hole, an ingenious idea executed in an entirely inelegant fashion. It attempts to mesh together the slow burning, highly deliberate storytelling and decision making of Prey with a structure that encourages you to react quickly and think on your feet. But I certainly suspect Mooncrash suffered some form of troubled development, because it is one of the weirdest things I’ve played in a very long time. However it transpired, the designers took what they had built so far of the DLC and rearranged it into a semi-procedural rogue-like. Or perhaps the developers felt the concept was treading too much of the same ground. Perhaps the abrupt departure of Raphael Colantonio, and subsequent takeover of the Austin studio by Harvey Smith, meant the team didn’t have the time to flesh out the expansion as it would have liked. Somehow, the Typhon infection would spread to the Moon, forcing you to cope with a disaster similar to that which happened on the space station.Īt some point, however, Arkane decided that this idea wasn’t working out. It would have put you in the space-boots of Riley Yu, the third of the Yu siblings in charge of the TranStar Moonbase that acts as an auxiliary research centre to the Talos One Space Station. I think originally it was meant to be a straight up expansion, much in the vein of the Dishonored series’ Knife of Dunwall and Death of the Outsider DLCs.
