I often wondered if I would ever find a game similar to those in my youth, that I could always go back to and feel good just by playing, no matter how many times I had beaten it. Prodigal is now one of those games. Not only giving me my favorite classic pixel art style, but the game itself is magnificently graced with a modern touch. I have plugged hundreds of hours into this game, any am still running into surprises. Excellent gameplay, superb writing, great Life-sim-ish mechanics and realism. I really appreciate that you have to think for yourself, and actually learn the game, and that answers aren't just given to you. Too many modern games play for you, and this game has proven to be the opposite.
