You know nothing.
- PRIOR – You know nothing.
PRIOR is the first project developed by krangGAMES. Made for the Ludum Dare Compo #19 in December 2010 under the theme of Discovery. In it, players must navigate through a dark facility in an effort to answer their own questions.
No information is given to the player at the beginning of the game, and the player must figure out who they are, what has happened, where they are, and why they are there. There is an extensive story behind PRIOR, though the player must piece it together themselves. Ultimately, the player will come to one of three endings that each reveal another piece of an unfathomably large puzzle.
PRIOR was a critical success, and has been nominated in the Canadian Videogame Awards for four categories. Nick (krangGAMES) has been interviewed about PRIORs development, from sites like Motherboard.tv. It earned four awards in the Ludum Dare Compo for which it was made, including 3rd Most Fun Game and 4th Best Game Overall, out of 242 entrants by designers of all ages and skill levels.

Brilliant game. It seems easy to design a game that’s hard to “beat” but hard to design a game that’s fun to play. Excellent job. I found it on Kongregate via your recent game (also brilliant).
Keep up the good work. Following your blog.
I’m happy you enjoyed my games, thanks for reblogging it! Always appreciated :)

This game is quick, and more about thinking than doing. Worth the time.
